WAX Get Account Info

Fetch account details from the WAX blockchain

Overview

This node fetches detailed account information from the WAX blockchain. It is useful for workflows that need to retrieve blockchain account data such as balances, permissions, or resource usage associated with a specific WAX account. Practical examples include verifying user account status before processing transactions, monitoring account resources, or integrating blockchain data into other systems.

Properties

Name	Meaning
Account Name	The name of the WAX blockchain account to retrieve information for.
API Endpoint	The URL of the WAX blockchain API endpoint to query. Defaults to `https://wax.greymass.com`.

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects, each containing the full response from the WAX blockchain's get_account API call for the specified account. This includes comprehensive account details such as:

Account permissions and authorities
Resource limits and usage (CPU, NET, RAM)
Account creation time
Token balances and staking info

No binary data is output by this node.

Dependencies

Requires access to the WAX blockchain API endpoint, which can be customized via the "API Endpoint" property.
Uses HTTP POST requests to the /v1/chain/get_account endpoint.
No additional external credentials are explicitly required beyond network access to the API endpoint.

Troubleshooting

Common issues:
- Invalid or misspelled account names will result in errors or empty responses.
- Network connectivity problems or incorrect API endpoint URLs will cause request failures.
Error messages:
- Errors returned from the blockchain API (e.g., account not found) will propagate through the node.
- To resolve, verify the account name is correct and the API endpoint is reachable and valid.
