PIPE SOLANA

Solana data for your validators and apps.

Snapshots, the ledger, shreds, account changes, the bank stream and JSON-RPC from Pipe’s mainnet producer, and the services built on it. Start on the free tier, then buy prepaid 30-day plans and add-ons with your infrastructure credit.

Getting started

Since October 23, 2026, downloads need a key. Snapshots, the ledger, shreds, account changes, the live tail, the bank stream and the debugger answer only with a key; light views and APIs stay free. Which routes, and how to use a key.

Try the free endpoints without a key, at the free public tier’s limits.
Buy a stake tier, data feeds and add-ons, or any of them alone, paid from your infrastructure credit.
Create a key for each line you hold: one for your tier and one for each feed or add-on. Send it as Authorization: Bearer psol_….

export PIPE_SOLANA=http://186.233.184.235:8080
export PIPE_API_KEY='<your psol_ key>'

The data endpoints are served from http://186.233.184.235:8080. Indexes, manifests and status files need no key. Every service’s endpoints and examples are in the services directory.

Endpoints and examples

Snapshots

Access group snapshots

Full and incremental snapshot archives from Pipe’s mainnet producer, each with a SHA-256 file. The index lists them with their slots, hashes and sizes.

/snapshots/index.json
/snapshots/snapshot-<slot>-<hash>.tar.zst
/snapshots/incremental-snapshot-<base>-<slot>-<hash>.tar.zst
/snapshots/<archive>.tar.zst.sha256

curl -fsS "$PIPE_SOLANA/snapshots/index.json" | jq -r '.snapshots[0].url'
curl -fL -C - -H "Authorization: Bearer $PIPE_API_KEY" -O "$PIPE_SOLANA/snapshots/snapshot-<slot>-<hash>.tar.zst"

Ledger

Access group ledger

Every shred the producer stored for a rooted slot, after erasure recovery and repair, with a JSON summary beside it.

/ledger/index.json
/ledger/<slot>.bin
/ledger/<slot>.json

curl -fsS -H "Authorization: Bearer $PIPE_API_KEY" -o <slot>.bin "$PIPE_SOLANA/ledger/<slot>.bin"

Shreds by slot

Access group shreds

Per-slot shred files for catching up to the tip. <bucket> is the slot divided by 1,000, rounded down.

/shreds/index.json
/shreds/<bucket>/manifest.json
/shreds/<bucket>/<slot>.bin

curl -fsS -H "Authorization: Bearer $PIPE_API_KEY" -o <slot>.bin "$PIPE_SOLANA/shreds/<bucket>/<slot>.bin"

Live shreds

Access group live

A stream of the newest shreds from <slot> on: frames of slot (u64), length (u16) and shred bytes, little-endian. A zero-length frame is a heartbeat.

/shreds/live?from=<slot>

curl -fsS -N -H "Authorization: Bearer $PIPE_API_KEY" "$PIPE_SOLANA/shreds/live?from=<slot>" > live.bin

Account changes

Access group changes

One zlib-compressed batch of account changes per rooted slot, with the inputs to its bank hash.

/changes/index.json
/changes/<bucket>/manifest.json
/changes/<bucket>/<slot>.chg

curl -fsS -H "Authorization: Bearer $PIPE_API_KEY" -o <slot>.chg "$PIPE_SOLANA/changes/<bucket>/<slot>.chg"

Bank stream

Access group stream

Server-Sent Events with the producer’s bank hash for each slot beside mainnet’s, for divergence alerts. Reconnect with Last-Event-ID to resume.

/bank/stream?from=<slot>

curl -fsS -N -H "Authorization: Bearer $PIPE_API_KEY" "$PIPE_SOLANA/bank/stream?from=<slot>"

Bank states

Access group bank

The same per-slot states for up to 1,000 slots at a time. The status file is free.

/bank/stream.json?from=<slot>&to=<slot>
/bank/stream/status.json

curl -fsS -H "Authorization: Bearer $PIPE_API_KEY" "$PIPE_SOLANA/bank/stream.json?from=<slot>&to=<slot>"

JSON-RPC

Access group rpc

Solana JSON-RPC methods answered from Pipe’s execution of mainnet.

POST /rpc

curl -fsS -H "Authorization: Bearer $PIPE_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"getSlot"}' "$PIPE_SOLANA/rpc"

Fees and programs

Access group analytics

Compute-unit prices, utilization, fees and contended accounts by slot, and the programs mainnet invoked. The program index is free.

/fees/recent.json
/fees/slots.json?from=<slot>&to=<slot>
/fees/accounts.json?window=150
/programs/index.json
/programs/elf/<sha256>.so

curl -fsS -H "Authorization: Bearer $PIPE_API_KEY" "$PIPE_SOLANA/fees/recent.json"
