How to Connect to Elrond

It’s easy to connect to your Elrond infrastructure via REST.

If you haven’t already configured any Elrond infrastructure, visit the Elrond marketplace page to learn more about Blockdaemon’s Elrond options.

Once you have purchased your Blockdaemon Elrond infrastructure, your Blockdaemon Technical Account Manager (TAM) will send you the necessary access credentials.

Note: These are one-time view, so make sure to copy them.

In this guide, we will cover the following simple methods of connection to your infrastructure:


Elrond REST Connection via cURL (Auth-Token)

Here’s how you add your access credentials to a cURL request:

curl -X GET -H 'Content-Type: application/json' "https://<YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL>/node/heartbeatstatus?auth=<AUTH_TOKEN>"
  • Replace YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL with the Endpoint URL sent by your Blockdaemon TAM.
  • Replace YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN with the Auth Token sent by your Blockdaemon TAM.

Elrond REST Connection via cURL (X-Auth-Token)

Here’s how you add your access credentials to a cURL request:

curl -X GET -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -H 'X-Auth-Token:<AUTH_TOKEN>' "https://<YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL>/node/heartbeatstatus"
  • Replace YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN with the Auth Token sent by your Blockdaemon TAM.
  • Replace YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL with the Endpoint URL sent by your Blockdaemon TAM.
