[!NOTE] Latest Testnet Dev Testnet

https://testnet.fuel.network/v1/graphql

We have some useful resources for the Testnet:

• Faucet Icon Link - for funding wallets that have been created.
• Explorer Icon Link - for viewing transactions and blocks.
• GraphQL Playground Icon Link - for testing GraphQL queries and mutations.

In the example below, we connect a Provider to the latest testnet and create a new wallet from a private key.

Note: New wallets on the Testnet will not have any assets! You can use the Faucet Icon Link to fund your wallet.

import { Provider, Wallet } from 'fuels';
 
const ADDRESS = '0x767caf5b08eba21c561078a4d5be09bbd7f16b9eca22699a61f1edd9e456126f';
 
const provider = await Provider.create('https://testnet.fuel.network/v1/graphql');
const wallet = Wallet.fromAddress(ADDRESS, provider);
 
const { balances } = await wallet.getBalances();
 
console.log('Balances', balances);
