JSON-RPC API (deprecated)

Warning

As of v22.6.0, the Nimbus JSON-RPC interface has been removed following an extended deprecation period. You are encouraged to migrate your applications to the REST API.

The JSON-RPC API pre-dated the REST API and was based on early designs of the beacon chain.

This guide is kept for historical reference, as well as to aid migration.
