Сomplete guide on how to use status json-rpc in GetBlock.io Web3 documentation. This method returns **real-time information** about the NEAR node and the network it’s connected to. It provides details such as the **latest block**, **validator information**, **sync status**, and **node version** — making it essential for **monitoring node health** and **network connectivity**. ## Supported Networks * Mainnet ## Parameters * None ## Request Example **Base URL** ```bash https://shared.eu-central-1.getblock.io/ ``` **Example(cURL)** ```curl curl -X POST https://shared.eu-central-1.getblock.io/ \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "status", "params": [], "id": "getblock.io" }' ``` ## Response Example ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "result": { "chain_id": "mainnet", "genesis_hash": "EPnLgE7iEq9s7yTkos96M3cWymH5avBAPm3qx3NXqR8H", "latest_protocol_version": 81, "node_key": null, "node_public_key": "ed25519:25NKtJin6cs4dDVqfrX15F8qHL8APKEPsZ8ZXkeQcZ1h", "protocol_version": 80, "rpc_addr": "0.0.0.0:3030", "sync_info": { "earliest_block_hash": "2YTH12o4WD5z8uMSNim1oM45oRZMMJVnHXYRbEGwXoL9", "earliest_block_height": 169582361, "earliest_block_time": "2025-10-24T00:26:02.397361265Z", "epoch_id": "78JmDEzNWqu1Z2RmLKoVqNvRn8tedtb1CwgyWsVg3ZK7", "epoch_start_height": 169789917, "latest_block_hash": "HPAkpQHzUJdNJm2UvguyGhwQHucyq47vACSfiUqNYTFu", "latest_block_height": 169796979, "latest_block_time": "2025-10-25T12:36:34.343644643Z", "latest_state_root": "43XupNhD4YyV9BkguKzBEqFzk8KKvhWMozaoWMiNPP8q", "syncing": false }, "uptime_sec": 424867, "validator_account_id": null, "validator_public_key": null, "validators": [ { "account_id": "bisontrails2.poolv1.near" }, { "account_id": "astro-stakers.poolv1.near" }, { "account_id": "zavodil.poolv1.near" }, { "account_id": "binancenode1.poolv1.near" }, { "account_id": "bitwise_1.poolv1.near" }, { "account_id": "ledgerbyfigment.poolv1.near" }, ], "version": { "build": "unknown", "commit": "unknown", "rustc_version": "1.86.0", "version": "2.9.0" } }, "id": "getblock.io" } ``` ## Response Parameters Definition | **Field** | **Type** | **Description** | | -------------------------------------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **chain\_id** | string | The unique identifier of the blockchain network (e.g., `mainnet`, `testnet`). | | **latest\_protocol\_version** | integer | The latest protocol version supported by the network. | | **node\_key** | string | The node’s cryptographic key used for synchronisation. | | **protocol\_version** | integer | The current protocol version running on the node. | | **rpc\_addr** | string | The RPC address through which the node communicates. | | **sync\_info** | object | Contains synchronisation details for block processing. | | **sync\_info.earliest\_block\_hash** | string | Hash of the earliest block stored on the node. | | **sync\_info.earliest\_block\_height** | integer | Height (index) of the earliest stored block. | | **sync\_info.earliest\_block\_time** | string | Timestamp of the earliest block (ISO 8601 format). | | **sync\_info.latest\_block\_hash** | string | Hash of the most recent block processed by the node. | | **sync\_info.latest\_block\_height** | integer | Height of the most recent block. | | **sync\_info.latest\_block\_time** | string | Timestamp of the most recent block (ISO 8601 format). | | **sync\_info.latest\_state\_root** | string | State root hash of the most recent block. | | **sync\_info.syncing** | boolean | Indicates whether the node is still syncing with the network. | | **uptime\_sec** | integer | Node uptime in seconds. | | **validator\_account\_id** | string | Account ID of the validator operating this node. | | **validators** | array | List of validators currently active in the network. | | **validators.account\_id** | string | Identifier of the validator’s account. | | **validators.is\_slashed** | boolean | Shows if the validator has been slashed for misbehaviour. | | **version** | object | Contains node software version details. | | **version.version** | string | Node software version number. | | **version.build** | string | Build label or release type (e.g., `release`, `debug`). | | **version.rustc\_version** | string | Rust compiler version used to build the node. | ## Use Cases * Monitor **node health** and connection status. * Retrieve **network-level information** for dashboards. * Detect if a node is **out of sync** or lagging behind the network. * Display **protocol and software version** information for maintenance and debugging. ## Code Example **Node(Axios)** ```js import axios from 'axios'; let data = JSON.stringify({ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "status", "params": [], "id": "getblock.io" }); let config = { method: 'post', maxBodyLength: Infinity, url: 'https://shared.eu-central-1.getblock.io/', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, data : data }; axios.request(config) .then((response) => { console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data)); }) .catch((error) => { console.log(error); }); ``` **Python(Requests)** ```python import requests import json url = "https://shared.eu-central-1.getblock.io/" payload = json.dumps({ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "status", "params": [], "id": "getblock.io" }) headers = { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' } response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload) print(response.text) ``` ## Error Handling | **HTTP Code** | **Error Message** | **Description** | | ----------------------------- | ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ | | **500 Internal Server Error** | `Node processing error` | The node encountered an issue while retrieving status. | | **403 Forbidden** | `RBAC: access denied` | The getblock access token is missing or incorrect | ## Integration with Web3 By integrating `/status` into dApp, developers can: * Build **network status dashboards** for validators and node operators. * Enable **automatic node monitoring** and alerts. * Check **protocol upgrades** or changes in real-time.
