WebSocket connection failed

Question

What is the correct URL to use for wss connection? I'm getting this error:

websocket.browser.js:47 WebSocket connection to 'wss://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com/' failed

My code used to work fine with these endpoints, but they give the same error now.

endpoints = [
  { url: 'https://raydium.rpcpool.com', weight: 100 },
  { url: 'https://solana-api.tt-prod.net', weight: 100 }
  { url: 'https://solana-api.projectserum.com', weight: 100 } ]```

Answer 1

Public RPCs don't have reliable socket support. There are free alternatives though that you can use which offer a few million free requests. For example:

• Helius https://www.helius.dev/
• Quicknode: https://www.quicknode.com/
• Hello moon: https://www.hellomoon.io/developers
