wallet/validateaddress | TRON API Docs

Validate TRON address format and encoding, check if address is valid Base58 or Hex format via Dwellir's reliable RPC endpoint.

Address Validation

Dwellir's TRON infrastructure provides fast address validation with format checking and encoding verification. Ensure address validity before processing transactions or queries.

Start validating addresses

Validate a TRON address to check if it's properly formatted and valid on the network. Supports both Base58 (T-prefix, 34 characters) and Hexadecimal (41-prefix, 42 characters) address formats. This is a native TRON wallet API endpoint with no EVM-compatible JSON-RPC equivalent.

TRON Address Formats

Format	Prefix	Length	Example
Base58	`T`	34 chars	`TNPdqto8HiuMzoG7Vv9wyyYhWzCojLeHAF`
Hex	`41`	42 chars	`41E552F6487585C2B58BC2C9BB4492BC1F17132CD0`

Both formats represent the same underlying 21-byte address. The EVM-compatible JSON-RPC layer uses standard 20-byte hex addresses (without the 41 prefix).

Use Cases

wallet/validateaddress is essential for:

Input Validation - Verify user-provided addresses
Transaction Safety - Validate recipient before sending
Form Validation - Real-time address checking in UIs
API Security - Validate addresses in API requests
Data Integrity - Ensure address validity in databases

JSON-RPC request

{
  "address": "TNPdqto8HiuMzoG7Vv9wyyYhWzCojLeHAF",
  "visible": true
}

Implementation Examples

Bash

# Validate Base58 address
curl -X POST "https://api-tron-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY/wallet/validateaddress" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "address": "TNPdqto8HiuMzoG7Vv9wyyYhWzCojLeHAF",
    "visible": true
  }'

# Validate Hex address
curl -X POST "https://api-tron-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY/wallet/validateaddress" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "address": "41E552F6487585C2B58BC2C9BB4492BC1F17132CD0",
    "visible": false
  }'

# Validate invalid address
curl -X POST "https://api-tron-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY/wallet/validateaddress" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "address": "InvalidAddress123",
    "visible": true
  }'

# Validate and parse result with jq
curl -s -X POST "https://api-tron-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY/wallet/validateaddress" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "address": "TNPdqto8HiuMzoG7Vv9wyyYhWzCojLeHAF",
    "visible": true
  }' | jq '{
    is_valid: .result,
    validation_message: .message
  }'

# Batch validation script
#!/bin/bash
API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
ADDRESSES=(
  "TNPdqto8HiuMzoG7Vv9wyyYhWzCojLeHAF"
  "TJmmqjb1DK9TTZbQXzRQ2AuA94z4gKAPFh"
  "InvalidAddress"
)

for addr in "${ADDRESSES[@]}"; do
  echo "Validating: $addr"
  curl -s -X POST "https://api-tron-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/$API_KEY/wallet/validateaddress" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d "{\"address\": \"$addr\", \"visible\": true}" | \
    jq -r 'if .result then "✓ Valid" else "✗ Invalid: " + .message end'
  echo ""
done

Response Examples

Valid Address Response

JSON

{
  "result": true,
  "message": "Valid address"
}

Invalid Address Response

JSON

{
  "result": false,
  "message": "Invalid address format"
}

Malformed Address Response

JSON

{
  "result": false,
  "message": "Illegal address"
}

Common Use Cases

1. Form Input Validation

JavaScript

function setupAddressValidation() {
  const input = document.getElementById('addressInput');
  const submitBtn = document.getElementById('submitBtn');
  const feedback = document.getElementById('feedback');
  
  let isValid = false;
  
  input.addEventListener('input', async (e) => {
    const address = e.target.value.trim();
    
    if (!address) {
      feedback.textContent = '';
      submitBtn.disabled = true;
      return;
    }
    
    // Quick format check
    if (!address.startsWith('T') || address.length !== 34) {
      feedback.textContent = '❌ Invalid format';
      feedback.className = 'error';
      submitBtn.disabled = true;
      return;
    }
    
    // API validation
    try {
      const result = await validateAddress(address);
      
      if (result.result) {
        feedback.textContent = '✓ Valid address';
        feedback.className = 'success';
        isValid = true;
      } else {
        feedback.textContent = '❌ ' + result.message;
        feedback.className = 'error';
        isValid = false;
      }
      
      submitBtn.disabled = !isValid;
    } catch (error) {
      feedback.textContent = '⚠️ Validation error';
      feedback.className = 'warning';
      submitBtn.disabled = true;
    }
  });
}

2. Transaction Pre-validation

JavaScript

async function sendTransaction(toAddress, amount) {
  // Validate address before sending
  const validation = await validateAddress(toAddress);
  
  if (!validation.result) {
    throw new Error(`Invalid recipient address: ${validation.message}`);
  }
  
  // Proceed with transaction
  return createTransaction(toAddress, amount);
}

3. Bulk Address Import

JavaScript

async function importAddresses(addressList) {
  const results = {
    valid: [],
    invalid: []
  };
  
  for (const address of addressList) {
    const validation = await validateAddress(address);
    
    if (validation.result) {
      results.valid.push(address);
    } else {
      results.invalid.push({
        address,
        reason: validation.message
      });
    }
  }
  
  return results;
}

Best Practices

Cache Results - Cache validation results for 60 seconds
Format Check First - Validate format locally before API call
Debounce Input - Debounce validation on user input
Batch Validation - Validate multiple addresses in parallel
Error Handling - Gracefully handle validation failures

wallet/getaccount - Get account information
wallet/getaccountbalance - Get account balance
wallet/createtransaction - Create TRX transfer (validate addresses first)
