### !params

#### !! pubkey

!type string  
!required

Pubkey of Token account to query, as base-58 encoded string

#### !! config

!type object

Configuration object containing the following fields:

##### !! commitment

!type string  
!values processed confirmed finalized  
!default finalized

Solana RPC uses the following commitment levels:

| Value       | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                |
| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `processed` | Return data from the highest slot this node has processed on the fork it currently considers best. This is the newest view, but it can still change if the cluster switches forks.                                                                                         |
| `confirmed` | Return data from the highest slot that at least two-thirds of active stake has directly voted to confirm. This is more stable than `processed`, but it is still a weaker guarantee than `finalized`.                                                                       |
| `finalized` | Return data from the highest slot that the cluster recognizes as finalized. In practice, this means the slot has reached maximum vote lockout in validators' vote towers and is recognized by at least two-thirds of active stake. This is the strongest commitment level. |

### !!result

```jsonc !response
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  // !hover(1:9) result
  "result": {
    // !hover context
    "context": { "apiVersion": "3.1.8", "slot": 1114 },
    // !hover(1:6) value
    "value": {
      "amount": "9864",
      "decimals": 2,
      "uiAmount": 98.64,
      "uiAmountString": "98.64"
    }
  },
  "id": 1
}
```

!type object

RpcResponse object containing:

#### !! context

!type object

Slot and API version the node used to answer this request.

| Field        | Type     | Description                                                                     |
| ------------ | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `slot`       | `u64`    | Slot at which the node evaluated this request.                                  |
| `apiVersion` | `string` | RPC API version reported by the node. This field may be omitted by older nodes. |

#### !! value

!type object

Token amount object with the following fields:

This uses the same amount fields documented for `uiTokenAmount` in
[Token Balances](/docs/rpc/json-structures#token-balances).

| Field            | Type             | Description                                                                                       |
| ---------------- | ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `amount`         | `string`         | Raw token balance, as a base-10 integer string with no decimal point.                             |
| `decimals`       | `u8`             | Number of decimal places configured on the mint.                                                  |
| `uiAmount`       | `number \| null` | Decimal-scaled token balance as a floating-point number. Deprecated in favor of `uiAmountString`. |
| `uiAmountString` | `string`         | Decimal-scaled token balance as a string.                                                         |
