Subscribing to Transactions

Stream Solana transaction through gRPC

A subscribe request defines the type of updates you want using filters. Filters allow you to set specific conditions—like monitoring a particular wallet, account, or transaction type—ensuring that you only receive updates relevant to your needs. We can subscribe to transactions using the transactions filter. The transactions filter has the following structure. The most important field here is the accountInclude field which streams all transactions related to the account addresses specified there. Its an array so you can specify multiple addresses in it.

{
  "slots": {
    "slots": {}
  },
  "accounts": {},
  "transactions": {
    "transactionLabel": 
      {
          "vote": boolean | undefined, //optional
	  "failed": boolean | undefined, //optional
	  "signature": string | undefined, //optional
	  "accountInclude": string[], //updates streamed for these accounts
	  "accountExclude": string[], //updates for this will be excluded
          "accountRequired": string[] 
      }
  },
  "blocks": {},
  "blocksMeta": {},
  "accountsDataSlice": [],
  "commitment": CommitmentLevel.CONFIRMED //finalized or processed also available
}

Subscribing to all transactions of an address

This request subscribes to all transactions of a Raydium. It can be any Solana address, a program, wallet, token etc.

{
  "slots": {
    "slots": {}
  },
  "accounts": {},
  "transactions": {
    "raydiumPoolv4": {
      "vote": false,
      "failed": false,
      "accountInclude": [
        "675kPX9MHTjS2zt1qfr1NYHuzeLXfQM9H24wFSUt1Mp8" //You can enter any Solana address, wallet, token, program etc.
      ]
    }
  },
  "blocks": {},
  "blocksMeta": {},
  "accountsDataSlice": [],
  "commitment": CommitmentLevel.CONFIRMED
}

The transactions filter helps you focus on transactions from a specific Solana address. The first field in the filter (e.g., raydiumPoolv4in the above case) is a client-assigned label, allowing you to easily identify updates, especially when using multiple filters. The vote and failed fields are simple true/false options: set them to true to include vote or failed transactions, or false to exclude them. Lastly, the accountInclude field specifies the program's address, ensuring you only stream transactions related to that program.

For transactions, if all fields are empty, then all transactions are broadcasted. Otherwise, fields work as logical AND, and values in arrays as logical OR.

Subscribing to all transactions of a Liquidity Pool

{
  "slots": {
    "slots": {}
  },
  "accounts": {},
  "transactions": {
    "raydiumPoolv4": {
      "vote": false,
      "failed": false,
      "accountInclude": [
        "9xQeWvG816bUx9EPjHmaT23yvVM2ZWbrrpZb9PusVFin" //liquidity pool address
      ]
    }
  },
  "blocks": {},
  "blocksMeta": {},
  "accountsDataSlice": [],
  "commitment": CommitmentLevel.CONFIRMED
}

To receive transactions of a liquidity Pool, we have to specify the liquidity pool address in the accountInclude field.

Subscribing to all transactions of multiple addresses

{
  "slots": {
    "slots": {}
  },
  "accounts": {},
  "transactions": {
    "raydiumPoolv4": {
      "vote": false,
      "failed": false,
      "accountInclude": [
        "HgQy5bqJd3GcjqakukhfMpqAfP62nTxGiqAqh4QtTuHF",
        "8pQYy5peKKqKk34BvJBuuBAfakukTLsmT2MVSzijUgt1" //the list of wallet addresses
        //You can add more wallet addresses here
      ]
    }
  },
  "blocks": {},
  "blocksMeta": {},
  "accountsDataSlice": [],
  "commitment": CommitmentLevel.CONFIRMED
}

The accountInclude field is an array and can take multiple wallet addresses, and will subscribe to all transactions from them.

Subscribing to all transactions of a token on Raydium

So far we were streaming all transaction of a Solana address. Now imagine, if you want all transactions of a token, but only on Raydium V4. You don't want transactions of that token on Orca or any other dex. In this case we will use a new field accountRequired.

{
  "slots": {
    "slots": {}
  },
  "accounts": {},
  "transactions": {
    "raydiumPoolv4": {
      "vote": false,
      "failed": false,
      "accountInclude": [
        "EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v"
      ],
      "accountRequired": ["675kPX9MHTjS2zt1qfr1NYHuzeLXfQM9H24wFSUt1Mp8"]
    }
  },
  "blocks": {},
  "blocksMeta": {},
  "accountsDataSlice": [],
  "commitment": CommitmentLevel.CONFIRMED
}

This lets you add another layer of filter, now gRPC will stream you transactions of that token only if it has Raydium V4 address in it.
