Hedera Mirror Node
Hedera provides REST APIs to easily query a mirror node hosted by Hedera, removing the complexity of running your own. The Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) gRPC API is a public mirror node managed by Hedera. It offers the ability to subscribe to HCS topics and receive messages for the topic subscribed to. API docs for the mirror nodes can be found here:
Mainnet
The non-production public mainnet mirror node serves to help developers build their applications without running their own mirror node. For production-ready mainnet mirror nodes, please check out Arkhia, Dragonglass, or Ledger Works. When building your Hedera client via SDK, you can use setMirrorNetwork()
and enter the public mainnet mirror node endpoint. The gRPC API requires TLS. The following SDK versions support TLS:
Java: v2.0.6+
JavaScript: v2.0.23+
Go: v2.1.9+
Testnet
