Coverage

Epochs 809–943+, updated daily as new epochs are published on the old-faithful CDN (typically 1–2 epochs behind current). For the latest 1–2 epochs, requests are proxied to the live validator automatically.

​
Supported Methods

​
Historical (served from archive)

MethodDescription
getTransactionFetch any historical transaction by signature
getBlockFetch full block data by slot number
getSignaturesForAddressGet transaction signatures for any account (GSFA-indexed)
getSlotGet the latest available slot
getBlockTimeGet the timestamp for a given slot

​
Proxied to live validator

All standard Solana JSON-RPC methods (getAccountInfo, getBalance, getHealth, etc.) are proxied to a live validator for recent/non-historical data.
