QuickStart

To interact with an AVM chain just use one of the endpoints below, no keys required.

Example usage in SDKs for Algorand testnet

JS SDK

//
// npm install algosdk
//
import algosdk from 'algosdk';

// Define the Algorand node connection parameters
const algodToken = ''; // free service does not require tokens
const algodServer = 'https://testnet-api.4160.nodely.dev';
const algodPort = 443;

// Create an instance of the algod client
const algodClient = new algosdk.Algodv2(algodToken, algodServer, algodPort);

async function getNodeStatus() {
  try {
    const status = await algodClient.status().do();
    console.log('Node status:', status);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error('Failed to get node status:', err);
  }
}

// Call the function to print the node status
getNodeStatus();

Python

#
# pip install py-algorand-sdk
#
from algosdk.v2client import algod

# Replace these values with your node's address
# free service does not require tokens
algod_address = "https://testnet-api.4160.nodely.dev"
algod_token = ""

# Initialize the algod client
algod_client = algod.AlgodClient(algod_token, algod_address)

# Get the node status
try:
    status = algod_client.status()
    print("Node status:", status)
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Failed to get node status: {e}")

Note

It is OK to use the old algonode.cloud endpoints, same rules, same infra as nodely.dev ✅

Algorand Mainnet endpoints info

• Cloudflare automatic balancing across 21+ geo locations
• Preflight acceleration (200+ locations)
• OK for production (backend & frontend)

Note

Free tier endpoints inject artificial 50ms latency to each response.
Commercial nodely.io endpoints use separate, low latency Enterprise Cloudflare network.

Voi network endpoints

Voi	Full Indexer v2 API	Full Algod v2 API
Mainnet	https://mainnet-idx.voi.nodely.dev	https://mainnet-api.voi.nodely.dev

Voi Endpoints info

• Cloudflare automatic balancing across 2 geo locations in USA
• Preflight acceleration (200+ locations)
• OK for production (backend & frontend)

Usage

Nodely hosts vanilla Algod API and indexer API - just drop the URL in your SDK and you are good to go.

Tip

Do not add /v2 or / at the end of the endpoint url in your SDK config.
