JSON-RPC Methods

Below is a quick command line example using CURL:

$ curl -X POST
-H "Content-Type: application/json"
--data '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "eth_blockNumber",
"params": []}'
"https://mainnet.backbonecabal.xyz/YOUR-API-KEY"

The result should look something like this:

$ {"jsonrpc": "2.0","result": "0x3ccb11", "id":1}

NOTE: "0x3ccb11" will be replaced with the block number of the most recent block on that network

Important to note that JSON-RPC is transport agnostic, meaning same concepts can be used over HTTP, WebSockets or other message passing environments. All JSON_RPC methods listed in 'Ethereum API' are also supported over websockets.
