Create Your First Endpoint
An endpoint is your gateway to a blockchain network. Each endpoint includes:
- An HTTPS RPC URL for standard calls
- A WSS URL for WebSocket subscriptions
- A unique API Key
Steps
1. Navigate to Endpoints
From the Dashboard, click Endpoints in the left sidebar (or visit /dashboard/endpoint).
2. Click "Add Endpoint"
Click the + Add Endpoint button in the top right corner.
3. Select a Blockchain
Choose from the available networks:
| Network | Chain ID | Slug | Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ethereum | 1 | ethereum-rpc | Full; archive verification varies |
| Base | 8453 | base-rpc | Full; archive verification varies |
| BSC | 56 | bsc-rpc | Full; archive verification varies |
| Arbitrum One | 42161 | arbitrum-one-rpc | Full; archive verification varies |
| Polygon | 137 | polygon-bor-rpc | Full; archive verification varies |
4. Name Your Endpoint (Optional)
Give your endpoint a descriptive name, e.g., "My DeFi Bot" or "Production Backend".
5. Start Using Your Endpoint
After creation, you'll see your RPC URLs:
HTTPS: https://ethereum-rpc.blockreq.com/v1/rpc/BRQ1P0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
WSS: wss://ethereum-rpc.blockreq.com/v1/rpc/BRQ1P0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000Example Usage
curl -X POST https://ethereum-rpc.blockreq.com/v1/rpc/BRQ1P0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_blockNumber","params":[],"id":1}'Built-in RPC Tester
Each endpoint includes a built-in RPC tester. Click the Test button to open it, select an RPC method, and run it directly from your browser.
