TON Center API

Standard HTTP JSON RPC. Similar to other blockchain APIs.

Clients connect to the ton-http-api server that proxies requests to the liteserver (node) using TonLib.

You can connect to public toncenter.com or run your own http-api instance.

Pros & Cons

  • ✅ Habitual and suitable for a quick start, this is perfect for every newcomer looking to play with TON.

  • ✅ Web-oriented. Perfect to interact with TON transactions, smart contracts from Web.

  • ❌ Simplified. It's not possible to receive information where you need an indexed TON API.

  • ❌ HTTP-Middleware. You can't fully trust server responses, because they do not contain Merkle proofs to validate that your data is genuine.
