SOLANA ARCHIVAL

10x lower latency, 100x fewer RPC calls

Easily access Solana's entire history since genesis, and build backend services with confidence.

NEW API

Access Solana's entire history with one RPC call

Index data easier with getTransactionsForAddress, a new method that combines getSignaturesForAddress and getTransaction into a single call.

getTransactionsForAddress
{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "getTransactionsForAddress", "params": [ "YOUR_ADDRESS_HERE", { "transactionDetails": "full", "sortOrder": "asc", // Oldest first "limit": 100, "filters": { "blockTime": { "gte": 1735689600, // Jan 1, 2025 "lte": 1738368000 // Jan 31, 2025 }, "status": "succeeded" } } ] }
  • Use reverse search to return the oldest results first
  • Add time-based filters to filter by timestamp or slot
  • Apply cursor-based pagination for efficient querying

    “Pulling Solana transactions into Awaken's tax tool from wallets with over 15,000 transactions used to take 3-5 minutes. With getTransactionsForAddress it takes less than 60s. Plus, with gTFA's slot-based filtering, we can continuously sync new transactions from the last imported slot faster and easier than traversing backwards from newest to oldest.”

    We used to jump through multiple calls and stitch logic together to build transaction-history workflows on Solana. With Helius's new getTransactionsForAddress endpoint, we can now make a single query and get complete transaction data with filtering, sorting, and pagination in one step. It’s dramatically cut down our engineering effort and given users faster, more reliable results.

    RPC side, Helius has been incredibly responsive. Working with bleeding edge tech like NFT compression, this has been invaluable. Quick turnaround and less time spent debugging indexing issues means we can spend more time on building out great user experiences.
