- LUTs owned by a wallet authority.
- LUTs that contain one account or token mint.
- LUTs that contain every account in a set.
- A best-effort LUT set for reducing transaction size.
Each Lookup Table RPC method costs 1 credit per call.
When to use these methods
Use these methods before building a versioned transaction, or to inspect where an account appears in existing tables.RPC endpoint
All examples use JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP:Find luts by authority
QuerygetLookupTablesByAuthority for tables controlled by a wallet authority.
deactivationSlot uses 18446744073709551615 to represent an active LUT.
Find luts containing one account
UsegetLookupTablesByAccount when you already know an account that will appear in a transaction and want to find LUTs that contain it.
Find luts containing a mint
getLookupTablesByMint is the same lookup pattern as getLookupTablesByAccount, but the parameter name is mint.
Find luts for a full account set
getLookupTablesByAccounts has two modes: intersection mode and best-set mode.
Intersection mode
Intersection mode returns LUTs that contain every account you provide. Use it when you need one table that covers the full set.Best-set mode
Best-set mode selects tables to cover the supplied accounts and reduce the transaction message size. SetbestSet: true and pass the full account list your transaction needs:
Best-set tuning
Start with the defaults. Tune only after measuring the returned coverage, estimated savings, and request time.
Example: choose luts before building a transaction
The typical flow is:- Collect the accounts your transaction will reference.
- Call
getLookupTablesByAccountswithbestSet: true. - Attach returned LUTs to your transaction builder.
- Keep
uncoveredAccountsas normal account keys.
Practical tips
- Use
bestSet: truefor transaction-size optimization, not for exhaustive discovery. - Use
ownerwhen you only trust or care about LUTs controlled by a specific authority. - Use
mintsOnlyon authority lookups when you are building token-oriented UX and do not need every stored address. - Treat
estimatedBytesSavedas a planning signal, then still simulate the final transaction. - Keep pagination logic for authority, account, and mint searches. Popular accounts can appear in many LUTs.
getLookupTablesByAccounts
Find LUTs for multiple accounts or get a best-fit LUT set.
