FAQ

How do I get an API key?

You need to call the init command to get an API key.

How do I connect to my node?

When you use the CLI to create a node you will get a connection url in the response. You can also retrieve the connection url at a later date using the list command. You will then need to consult the phoenixd api docs to see which endpoints are available. We do have a NodeJS client library available on GitHub to make it easier to make requests and connect via websockets.

How many nodes can I run at one time?

There is no limit to the number of nodes that you can run.

How much does it cost?

We charge 0.4 sats per min or part thereof (approx $10 per month). Charges start when you create your node and end when you delete it.

When do I get charged?

For nodes that have not been deleted, a charge will be automatically applied at the end of each day. If you choose to delete your node manually then there will be a charge at that point. Please note that once credit runs out, containers created using your API key will be deleted.
