Response

JSON

Example

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "result": {
    "version": "27.x",
    "captiveCoreVersion": "stellar-core 27.x",
    "protocolVersion": 27
  }
}

Returns build and version metadata for Stellar RPC and its Captive Core, together with the protocol version.

Use it for diagnostics and compatibility checks. Use getNetwork for the passphrase or getHealth for readiness and retention.

Values can change when the selected node rotates or is upgraded; no SLA is attached to a particular upstream build.

Parameters

JSON-RPC params is a by-name object. Send an empty object ({}); this method defines no parameters.

——optional

No method parameters.

Response

The response is copied unchanged from the accepted fixture.

resultobject

Method result object.

result.buildTimestampstring

The build timestamp of the RPC server.

result.captiveCoreVersionstring

The version of the Captive Core.

result.commitHashstring

The commit hash of the RPC server.

result.protocolVersioninteger

The protocol version.

result.versionstring

The version of the RPC server.

Errors

Errors use the standard JSON-RPC envelope. See Stellar errors and the shared error reference.

Code	Meaning	When it happens
`-32602`	Invalid params	the by-name object or a field has the wrong type; positional-array style params are rejected.
`-32601`	Method not found	The method is absent from the published Stellar OpenRPC catalog.
`401`	Unauthorized	The API key is missing or invalid.
`429`	Rate limited	The `stellar_read_rpc` RPS budget is exceeded.

Examples

JavaScript (fetch)

JavaScript

const request = {
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "getVersionInfo",
  "params": {}
};
const response = await fetch("https://triport.io/rpc/stellar", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "x-token": process.env.TRIPORT_API_KEY,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify(request),
});
const payload = await response.json();
if (!response.ok || payload.error) throw new Error(JSON.stringify(payload.error));
console.log(payload.result);

Notes

Version strings are node-specific.
The fixture uses illustrative 27.x strings while preserving schema fields.
