SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Helius unifies Solana RPC and asset data behind a scalable API, reducing the complexity and maintenance burden of building on Solana.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Reliable RPC Infrastructure: Global, low-latency endpoints for mainnet and devnet.
  • DAS API & Asset Data: Unified access to NFTs, compressed NFTs, fungible tokens, and metadata.
  • Enhanced Transactions & Webhooks: Decoded transaction history, priority fees, and real-time event notifications.
  • Streaming & SDKs: LaserStream gRPC streaming, WebSocket subscriptions, and a rich SDK namespace set for rapid development.
  • Use Case: Build dashboards that monitor on-chain activity, fetch NFT details, and automate actions from events.

Quick Start

Install the Helius SDK and configure your RPC endpoints to begin using DAS, enhanced transactions, and WebSocket streams.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fetch Solana NFT and token metadata using a unified API?

You can fetch Solana NFT and token metadata using a unified API by accessing the DAS API through Helius, which provides single-endpoint retrieval for fungible tokens, compressed NFTs, and standard asset metadata.

How do I stream real-time Solana blockchain events via WebSocket or gRPC?

You can stream real-time Solana blockchain events by utilizing WebSocket subscriptions or LaserStream gRPC streaming exposed through Helius, enabling low-latency transaction monitoring and event-driven application actions.

How do I get decoded Solana transaction history and priority fees?

To get decoded Solana transaction history and priority fees, use the Enhanced Transactions and Priority Fee API provided by Helius, which simplifies parsing complex on-chain data for transaction monitoring.

Can I automate Solana app workflows using real-time webhooks?

Yes, you can automate Solana app workflows by configuring Helius Webhooks to receive real-time event notifications, allowing your data dashboards and tooling to trigger actions immediately when on-chain activity occurs.

What is the best way to build low-latency Solana data dashboards?

The best way to build low-latency Solana data dashboards is by using Helius RPC infrastructure, which offers global mainnet and devnet endpoints combined with DAS API access for reliable on-chain activity monitoring.

Does ZK Compression work with standard Solana RPC endpoints?

ZK Compression requires specific DAS API support to read compressed data, which Helius provides natively, allowing your apps to access compressed NFTs and state without maintaining custom decompression logic.
