...Frequently asked questions
What is the Associated Token Program IDL?
The Associated Token Program IDL (Interface Definition Language) is a JSON schema that describes the on-chain program interface for the Associated Token Program smart contract on Solana. It defines all available instructions, account structures, events, and types needed to interact with the program. This one has 3 instructions, 0 account types, 0 events and 0 type definitions.
How do I use the Associated Token Program IDL in my project?
You can use the Associated Token Program IDL with Anchor framework clients in TypeScript (@coral-xyz/anchor), Rust (anchor-client), or Python (anchorpy). Download the JSON file, import it in your project, and use it to create a Program instance that can call instructions and decode accounts.
What is the Associated Token Program program address on Solana?
The Associated Token Program program is deployed at address ATokenGPvbdGVxr1b2hvZbsiqW5xWH25efTNsLJA8knL on Solana mainnet.
What version of the Associated Token Program IDL is this?
This is version 1.1.0 of the Associated Token Program IDL. IDL versions follow program deployments and change as the protocol evolves, so check it against the program on-chain before you integrate.
Build on Associated Token Program with AllenHark
Stream the program's accounts and transactions with Yellowstone gRPC, read its state over Solana RPC, or see its transactions before the block is built with ShredStream. To trade against it, try the trading bots or the PumpFun sniper.
