# Tron

**Step 1**: To access Tron, use the following native access endpoints:

* **Network**: Tron Mainnet
* **Request Type**: POST

```
https://svc.blockdaemon.com/tron/mainnet/native/jsonrpc
```

* **Network**: Tron Nile Testnet
* **Request Type**: POST

```
https://svc.blockdaemon.com/tron/nile/native/jsonrpc
```

**Step 2:** Authenticate your request using your API key. You can include the API key using either of the following headers:

```curl Bearer Token
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
```

```curl X-API-Key
X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY
```

**Step 3**: Specify a Tron method in the request body:

> Learn more about Tron methods [here](https://docs.blockdaemon.com/reference/tron-methods-rpc-api).

```json
{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "YOUR_METHOD",
    "params": []
}
```

### Example Request

Here is a cURL example for using **`eth_protocolVersion`** to get the current Ethereum protocol version.

```curl
curl --request POST \
  --url https://svc.blockdaemon.com/tron/mainnet/native/jsonrpc \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "eth_protocolVersion",
    "params": []
  }'
```

The following is a typical response you will get:

```
{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": "1",
    "result": "0x1e"
}
```
