Get StartedAssociated Token Account IDL
ATokenGPvbdGVxr1b2hvZbsiqW5xWH25efTNsLJA8knLSPL Associated Token Account program derives deterministic token account addresses from wallet and mint public keys. Eliminates the need for users to manually create token accounts before receiving tokens.
Instructions
Integration Examples
Use the Associated Token Account IDL in your application with these code examples for TypeScript, Rust, and Python.
import { Connection, PublicKey } from "@solana/web3.js";
import { Program, AnchorProvider, Idl } from "@coral-xyz/anchor";
// Load the Associated Token Account IDL
import idl from "./associated token account.json";
const PROGRAM_ID = new PublicKey("ATokenGPvbdGVxr1b2hvZbsiqW5xWH25efTNsLJA8knL");
// Set up the provider and program
const connection = new Connection("https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com");
const provider = new AnchorProvider(connection, wallet, {
commitment: "confirmed",
});
const program = new Program(idl as Idl, provider);
// Fetch and decode an account
const accountData = await program.account.associated_Token_Account
.fetch(accountPublicKey);
console.log("Account data:", accountData);
// Build and send an instruction
const tx = await program.methods
.initialize(/* ...args */)
.accounts({
/* ...required accounts */
})
.rpc();
console.log("Transaction signature:", tx);IDL JSON Preview
