Websocket Support for Ethereum Nodes

Learn how Blockdaemon provide access to its data API using a standard HTTP API or WebSockets connection.

WebSocket allows websites to update content without having to wait for the user. Unlike other techniques which piggyback on the HTTP protocol, the WebSocket protocol creates an ongoing connection between the user and the web service, allowing information to flow easily between both endpoints.

We provide access to our data API using a standard HTTP API or WebSockets connection.

Eth nodes websockets testing:

  • Can use auth token in the header to use the WebSocket endpoint.
  • Can use bearer token in the header to use WebSocket endpoint.
  • Can use the token as url param to use the WebSocket endpoint.
  • Websocket is using port 8443 and HTTP/1.1.
