Before you can start using Nolimitnodes, you need to set up an account and generate an API key.

​
Setup

1

Create an Account

Navigate to the Nolimitnodes Dashboard and sign up for an account.
2

Generate an API Key

Once logged in, generate an API key from your dashboard if you haven’t already created one.
3

Make Your First Request

Use your API key to connect to the Solana mainnet RPC endpoint.

​
Quick Test

Verify your setup with a simple getSlot request: 
curl -X POST https://api.nolimitnodes.com/solana_mainnet?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "getSlot"
  }'

​
WebSocket Quick Test

Connect to the WebSocket endpoint for real-time data: 
wscat -c "wss://api.nolimitnodes.com/solana_mainnet?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY"
Once connected, subscribe to slot updates: 
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "slotSubscribe"
}
