1. How to Connect via cURL

Use cURL to establish a BNB RPC connection with the following command:

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data '{"method": "METHOD_PARAMS", "params": [RPC_METHOD], "id": 1}' 'YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL?auth=YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN'

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

2. How to Connect via WebSocket

Add your access credentials to a WebSocket connection request:

wscat -H "X-Auth-Token: YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN" -c wss://YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL:8443/websocket

• Replace YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL with the Endpoint URL in the Blockdaemon app.
• Replace YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN with the Auth Token in the Blockdaemon app.
