Connect to Ocean-Related Networks Learn how to connect to the Pacific network, Nile testnet and other Ocean-related networks in your browser with MetaMask.

Connect to the Pacific Network

Here are the parameters you might need to connect to the Pacific Network:

Parameter Value
RPC URL (required) https://pacific.oceanprotocol.com
ChainID 846353 (decimal for MetaMask) or 0xcea11 (hexadecimal)
Symbol Whatever you like, e.g. PACIFIC ETH
Nickname Whatever you like, e.g. Pacific

In MetaMask, click on the network name then click on Custom RPC in the drop-down list. Scroll down to the New Network section. Enter the above RPC URL. You don't need to add a port number to the end of the RPC URL. Enter the ChainID, Symbol and Nickname if you like. See the MetaMask docs about how it uses the ChainID.

If you're using Barge to run a local Pacific node, you can connect to that local Pacific node at RPC URL http://localhost:8545 (called "Localhost 8545" in MetaMask). You can configure that local Pacific node by editing the files in the barge/networks/pacific/config/ directory.

Connect to the Nile Testnet

Here are the parameters you might need to connect to the Nile Testnet:

Parameter Value
RPC URL (required) https://nile.dev-ocean.com
ChainID 8995 (decimal for MetaMask) or 0x2323 (hexadecimal)
Symbol Whatever you like, e.g. NILE ETH
Nickname Whatever you like, e.g. Nile Testnet

In MetaMask, click on the network name then click on Custom RPC in the drop-down list. Scroll down to the New Network section. Enter the above RPC URL. You don't need to add a port number to the end of the RPC URL. Enter the ChainID, Symbol and Nickname if you like. See the MetaMask docs about how it uses the ChainID.

If you're using Barge to run a local Nile node, you can connect to that local Nile node at RPC URL http://localhost:8545 (called "Localhost 8545" in MetaMask). You can configure that local Nile node by editing the files in the barge/networks/nile/config/ directory.

Connect to a Local Spree Testnet or Ganache-Based Testnet

When using Barge to run a purely-local testnet (Spree or Ganache-based), you can connect to a local node at RPC URL http://localhost:8545 (called Localhost 8545 in MetaMask).
