1. How to Connect via cURL

Here’s how you add your access credentials to a cURL request:

curl -X POST 'YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'X-Auth-Token: YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN' \
  --data-raw '{
    "id": 1,
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "RPC_METHOD",
    "params": [METHOD_PARAMS]
  }'

• Replace YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL with the Endpoint URL in the Blockdaemon app.
• Replace YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN with the Auth Token found in the Blockdaemon app.
• Replace RPC_METHOD with your chosen RPC method.
• Replace METHOD_PARAMS with the necessary parameters for your RPC.
