# StableNet Developer Documentation

## RPC Connectivity

<CodeGroup>
  ```shellscript bash theme={null}
  curl -X POST https://api.test.stablenet.network \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_blockNumber","params":[],"id":1}'
  ```
</CodeGroup>

```shellscript theme={null}
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"result":"0x132d3"}
```

This is the fastest way to verify that the StableNet RPC endpoint is functioning correctly. When you run this command, a JSON-RPC request is sent directly to the StableNet network, and the latest block number is returned in the response.

If a block number (in hexadecimal format) is returned successfully, your RPC connection is properly configured and communication with the StableNet network is working as expected. Run this first before configuring nodes, sending transactions, or integrating wallets.
