Subscribe to a program to receive notifications when the lamports or data for an account owned by the given program changes

Parameters #

string required

Pubkey of the program_id, as base-58 encoded string

object optional

Configuration object containing the following fields:

commitment string optional

filters array optional

filter results using various filter objects

Info

The resultant account must meet ALL filter criteria to be included in the returned results

encoding string optional

Encoding format for Account data

Values: base58base64base64+zstdjsonParsed

base58 is slow.
jsonParsed encoding attempts to use program-specific state parsers to return more human-readable and explicit account state data.
If jsonParsed is requested but a parser cannot be found, the field falls back to base64 encoding, detectable when the data field is type string.

Result #

<integer> - Subscription id (needed to unsubscribe)
