NEAR Protocol provides multiple ways to interact with the network — from low-level JSON-RPC calls to visual explorers and wallets.

​
Tools

NEAR Explorer

Browse transactions, accounts, blocks, and contracts on mainnet and testnet.

NEAR Wallet

Create and manage NEAR accounts, send tokens, and interact with dApps.

​
RPC API

NEAR exposes a JSON-RPC 2.0 API for programmatic access to the network. All requests are POST to a provider endpoint, with the method name encoded in the URL path. 
curl -X POST https://rpc.mainnet.near.org/status \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{}'
See RPC Providers for the full list of public endpoints.
