Infura API to get Ether's current configuration chain ID - Blockchain Data Development in Action

Introduction: Infura is an API service provider for Ether and IPFS. Infura started out as a stable and reliable RPC access provider for ConsenSys internal projects, but as the Ether ecosystem grew, they realized they could play a bigger role, and started to provide public **** API services for developers. This article organizes the implementation of using the Infura API to get the current configuration chain ID of EtherSys.

Infura is an API service provider for both Ether and IPFS. Infura started out by providing stable and reliable RPC access to internal ConsenSys projects, but as the Ether ecosystem grew, they realized they could play a bigger role and started providing public **** API services to developers.

This article organizes an implementation that uses the Infura API to get the current configuration chain ID for EtherSys.

The official Infura API documentation is available at https://infura.io/docs

To use the API, you need to apply for a Project ID, which is free, and the application process is "Register - Login - Create New Project". It takes a few minutes to complete.

Infura API standard request port format:

In this example, we use the HTTP-based JSON-RPC port of the main Ethernet network:
