}When working with custom Viem clients, make sure to include the batching configuration:
import { BATCH_CONFIGS } from "@gmx-io/sdk/configs/batch";
const publicClient = createPublicClient({
...your_config,
batch: BATCH_CONFIGS[chainId].client,
});- RPC URLs - use your preferred RPC endpoint
- Current Oracle URLs
- Current Subsquid URLs
You can override default token properties by passing an extension object in the SDK configuration:
const sdk = new GmxSdk({
...arbitrumSdkConfig,
tokens: {
"0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548": {
name: "My Custom Name for ARB",
},
},
});With this configuration, the name field for this token will use your custom value throughout the SDK.
To control which markets are available in the SDK, use the markets configuration field:
const sdk = new GmxSdk({
...arbitrumSdkConfig,
markets: {
"0x47c031236e19d024b42f8AE6780E44A573170703": {
isListed: false,
},
},
});import type { IncreasePositionAmounts } from "@gmx-io/sdk/types/orders";
const { marketsInfoData, tokensData } = await sdk.markets.getMarketsInfo();
if (!marketsInfoData || !tokensData) {
throw new Error("No markets or tokens info data");
}
const marketInfo = marketsInfo["0x47c031236e19d024b42f8AE6780E44A573170703"];
const collateralToken = tokensData["0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548"];

});Helper functions simplify order creation by automatically calculating amounts, swap paths, and other parameters. By default, helpers fetch the latest data from the API, but you can optionally pass marketsInfoData and tokensData yourself to reduce API calls.
sdk.orders.long({
payAmount: 100031302n,
marketAddress: "0x70d95587d40A2caf56bd97485aB3Eec10Bee6336", // ETH/USD [WETH-USDC]

});
sdk.orders.swap({

fromTokenAddress: "0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548", // ARB

allowedSlippageBps: 125,
});Note the distinction between payTokenAddress and collateralTokenAddress. These represent the ERC20 token addresses for payment and collateral respectively. Some markets use synthetic tokens, so you'll need to provide the correct underlying token address. For example, the BTC/USD [WETH-USDC] market has a synthetic BTC token as its indexTokenAddress, so you should pass the WBTC address instead of BTC.
Use the v2 API client to get the current increase-order capacity for one market side:
import { GmxApiSdk } from "@gmx-io/sdk/v2";
const api = new GmxApiSdk({ chainId: 42161 });
const capacity = await api.getTradingCapacity({
symbol: "ETH/USD [WETH-USDC]",
direction: "long",
});
if (capacity.marketDataStatus !== "fresh") {
throw new Error("Trading capacity is based on stale market data");
}
const safeAccountAgnosticSize = capacity.baseAvailableLiquidity;
const indicativeGlobalCapacity =
capacity.jitDataStatus === "available" ? capacity.availableLiquidity : capacity.baseAvailableLiquidity;availableLiquidity is the current global JIT-aware capacity and remains capped by max open interest.
It is indicative because the keeper can restrict JIT by account. baseAvailableLiquidity is the native capacity without
JIT, but it is still a market-level snapshot: a collateral swap or intervening market state can reduce the capacity
available to a specific order. The keeper can use JIT for market, limit, stop-market, and TWAP increases, but availability
is evaluated again when each order executes. Do not size an order while marketDataStatus is stale. Treat
prepareOrder as the final request-aware validation; it returns a typed warning when capacity is not authoritative for
the specific request.
Prepare failures can be narrowed to the typed API contract:
import { parsePrepareOrderError } from "@gmx-io/sdk/v2";
try {
await api.prepareOrder(request);
} catch (error) {
const prepareError = parsePrepareOrderError(error);
if (prepareError?.code === "INSUFFICIENT_LIQUIDITY") {
console.log(prepareError.details.availableLiquidity, prepareError.details.requestedSizeUsd);
}
}The helper uses the capacity returned by /v1/markets/trading-capacity. Existing raw JIT access through
fetchJitLiquidityInfo() remains available for integrations that need shift data.
