Solana Authentication

Authentication

The Solana JSON-RPC OpenAPI declares no securitySchemes. The public cluster endpoints (api.mainnet-beta.solana.com, api.devnet.solana.com, api.testnet.solana.com) require no API key and no authentication — they are open, shared, rate-limited infrastructure not intended for production. Authenticated access is provided by third-party RPC providers (Helius, QuickNode, Triton, Alchemy, Syndica, GetBlock, etc.), which typically authenticate via an API key embedded in the request URL path/query or a header. Those keys are provider-specific and not part of the Solana protocol.

Solana declares 0 security scheme(s) across its OpenAPI definitions.
