Connect to an archive node

Overview

Building dApps (decentralized applications) or data-driven projects on Ronin often requires access to the blockchain's historical layers. Archive nodes are nodes that maintain a complete history of all states changes since the inception of the blockchain, not just the recent data like standard RPC (remote procedure call) nodes. This comprehensive data access is crucial for complex queries such as extracting historical balances or changes in contract states.

Prerequisites

  • An app created in the Developer Console.
  • Permission to use the archive node. Request in the Developer Console under your app > App Permission > Ronin Archive Node > Request Access.

For more information, see Get started.

Connect to the archive node

To connect to the archive node, point your dApp to the archive endpoint:
