SDK Integration

ethers.js

const { ethers } = require('ethers');

const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider('https://go.getblock.io/<ACCESS-TOKEN>/');

// SDKs handle filter cleanup automatically
// Manual removal via raw RPC if needed
const removed = await provider.send('eth_uninstallFilter', ['0x1']);
console.log('Filter removed:', removed);

viem.js

import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem';
import { bsc } from 'viem/chains';

const client = createPublicClient({
    chain: bsc,
    transport: http('https://go.getblock.io/<ACCESS-TOKEN>/')
});

// Use unwatch function returned by watch methods
const unwatch = client.watchBlocks({
    onBlock: block => console.log(block)
});

// Later: cleanup
unwatch();
