1 Launch Node

📘

Please note that unless the blockchain is marked as Archive, the node set up on the platform will be a full node.

Go to Power Node page, click Create one Now button, and you will forward to the Launch Node page.

On the Launch Node page, you can select the protocol, set the node name, choose the region of the node to be deployed, and configure the resources of the node. For the resource, you can either configure it by using the Recommended Resource or the resource as you like. Finally, click the Launch button to complete.

2 Use the Node

After launching a node, you can use the node for different purposes. Select the node you just launched in the node list, and then click the Use the Node button. Currently, we can support the node for 2 different purposes: 1) as a dedicated API endpoint; and 2) as a validator node.

If you want to use the node for a dedicated API endpoint, please click the API tab. On this page, you can turn on the API button and use the endpoint to connect to the node. Learn more at Use Node as Dedicated API.

If you want to use the node as a validator, please click the Validator tab. On this page, you can find the validator information. Learn more at Use Node as Validator.
