Quicknode provides comprehensive API access to Hyperliquid's dual-layer architecture, supporting both HyperCore trading infrastructure and HyperEVM smart contract capabilities. Using your Hyperliquid endpoint, you can seamlessly access:
HyperCore APIs:
- Info Endpoints (
/infopath) - Query market data, user positions, trading history, vault analytics, and exchange state. 30 of 52 methods are natively available on Quicknode's/infopath; the remaining 22 are not part of the open-source Hyperliquid node. See the method availability table for the full breakdown and alternatives. - Data Streams - Real-time streaming of trades, orders, events, and blockchain data via high-performance gRPC and JSON-RPC/WebSocket APIs
- REST API - Trading operations (build, sign, and send orders), builder fee approval management, market discovery (list markets, open orders, order status), and order validation via HTTP REST endpoints
- JSON-RPC API (
/hypercorepath) - Historical block queries, portfolio and clearinghouse state queries, order data, and WebSocket subscriptions for backfilling and batch processing
HyperEVM APIs:
- Ethereum JSON-RPC API - Full compatibility with Ethereum tooling (Foundry, Hardhat, Web3 libraries)
- Debug API - Advanced transaction tracing and debugging capabilities
- Trace API - Detailed transaction analysis and monitoring tools
Access to /hypercore (JSON-RPC and WebSocket) and HyperCore gRPC streaming requires a Quicknode Build plan or higher. View pricing to upgrade.
REST API: If you are on a free trial plan, we provide a URL for you to use, but it is not specific to your Quicknode account. Please see hyperliquidapi.com for details and our Discord for support.

Supported SDKs
Quicknode maintains open-source community SDKs for Hyperliquid in multiple languages. These SDKs handle transaction building, signing, and submission for HyperCore trading operations and HyperEVM interactions.
These open-source SDKs are developed and maintained by Quicknode. They are community-oriented and not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with Hyperliquid Foundation or Hyperliquid Labs.
Available SDKs:
- Python - hyperliquid-sdk on PyPI
- TypeScript/JavaScript - @quicknode/hyperliquid-sdk on npm
- Rust - quicknode-hyperliquid-sdk on crates.io
- Go - Available in the SDK repository
All SDKs are open source and available on GitHub. The SDKs integrate with Quicknode endpoints for accessing /info, /exchange, /evm, /nanoreth, /hypercore, and gRPC streams. They can be used with or without a Quicknode endpoint.
For detailed SDK documentation, examples, and setup guides, see the SDKs & Libraries page.
Supported APIs
Supported Networks
Quicknode provides access to the following Hyperliquid networks:
*Pruning Policy:
/evm → Recent data only. The /evm endpoint does not provide archival access — older block data is periodically pruned (approximately every 12 hours). Requests for blocks outside the retention window will return an invalid block height error. Use /nanoreth for historical queries.
/nanoreth → Full historical archive with tracing support. Includes all debug and trace methods plus WebSocket functionality.
- Mainnet: Full historical archive
- Testnet: Starts from block 34112653 (not genesis)
