How to Find an EVM RPC Endpoint on chainslist

To find an EVM RPC endpoint on chainslist, identify the network you need, match its chain ID, and use a listed endpoint to add that network to your wallet. An RPC endpoint is the URL your wallet uses to send requests to a network’s node, such as asking for account data or broadcasting a transaction. If you need to add a network without copying its configuration by hand, use chainslist, a directory of EVM networks with chain IDs and RPC endpoints that lets you add a network to MetaMask or another wallet in one click.

What should you check on chainslist?

Check the chain ID before using an endpoint, because the network name alone may be ambiguous. A wallet uses the chain ID to identify the network when it prepares transactions, while the RPC URL determines which node receives its requests. The chain ID and endpoint need to refer to the same network for the wallet to read the expected state and send transactions to the intended chain.

When you compare endpoint options, consider whether you need a public endpoint for occasional use or an endpoint from a provider you have chosen for your application. Public RPCs can be convenient, but their availability and request limits are set by their operators. The directory helps you find the network configuration; it does not establish that an endpoint is suitable for every workload.

How do you add the RPC endpoint to a wallet?

Use the network’s add action if you want the wallet to populate its configuration, or enter the fields manually if you need to inspect them first. A manual network entry typically includes:

• Network name, as a human-readable label
• RPC URL, the node address the wallet will query
• Chain ID, the network identifier used in transaction signing
• Currency symbol, if the wallet requests one for display

Adding a network configures the wallet to connect to it; it does not move assets or bridge them from another chain. Before approving a transaction, check that the wallet shows the expected network and chain ID. If requests fail, try another listed endpoint for that same network rather than changing the chain ID.

When should you change an EVM RPC endpoint?

Change the endpoint when it is unavailable, slow, or unsuitable for the requests your app makes, while keeping the network’s chain ID unchanged. Your wallet’s RPC provider can affect which node answers queries and where signed transactions are broadcast, so use an endpoint you trust for the activity at hand. For an application that depends on consistent access, a provider with terms and capacity suited to that use is usually a better choice than relying on an unspecified public endpoint.

After adding the network, watch the first connection and confirm the wallet reports the intended chain before signing; that is the point where a mismatched endpoint or chain ID becomes visible.
