# JSON-RPC

MegaETH exposes Ethereum-compatible JSON-RPC over HTTP and WebSocket, with additional methods and real-time behavior. Start with the shared guides below, then use the RPC Reference for individual method contracts.

## Get started

* [Quickstart](/developer-docs/rpc/quickstart.md) — make a read-only request and verify the connected network.
* [JSON-RPC basics](/developer-docs/rpc/json-rpc-basics.md) — request envelopes, notifications, batches, and response handling.
* [Type reference](/developer-docs/rpc/types.md) — hexadecimal quantities, byte strings, addresses, hashes, and selectors.
* [Error reference](/developer-docs/rpc/error-codes.md) — standard, Ethereum, MegaETH, and public-gateway errors.
* [Operations and limits](/developer-docs/rpc/operations-and-limits.md) — rate limits, payload caps, caching, and WebSocket limits.

## RPC Reference

Use the [RPC Reference](/developer-docs/rpc/reference.md) for method availability and individual request, response, error, and example documentation.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.megaeth.com/developer-docs/rpc.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
