Photon's JSON-RPC for this method accepts the params as a positional pair [address, hash] — pass null for whichever identifier you are not using.

address queries compressed accounts created with a Light Protocol address.
hash queries by the merkle-tree leaf hash and works for every compressed account.

- [getCompressedAccountProof](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-compressed-account-proof.md): Returns a merkle proof for the compressed account with the given hash.

Advanced filters (dataSlice, filters) are supported by the underlying Photon API but are not modeled in this Try It widget. To use them, send the request directly with dataSlice: { offset, length } and/or filters: [{ memcmp: { offset, bytes } }] added to the params object.

- [getCompressedBalance](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-compressed-balance.md): Returns the balance for the compressed account with the given address or hash. Provide either address or hash.

- [getCompressedTokenAccountBalance](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-compressed-token-account-balance.md): Returns the balance for the compressed token account with the given address or hash. Provide either address or hash.
- [getCompressedTokenAccountsByDelegate](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-compressed-token-accounts-by-delegate.md): Returns the compressed token accounts delegated to the given Pubkey.

Compressed token delegation is rare on mainnet, so most Pubkeys (including the example value) currently return an empty items array. To see a non-empty response, supply a Pubkey that has been set as the SPL-Token-2022 delegate on a compressed token account.

- [getCompressedTokenAccountsByOwner](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-compressed-token-accounts-by-owner.md): Returns the compressed token accounts owned by the given Pubkey.

- [getCompressedTokenBalancesByOwnerV2](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-compressed-token-balances-by-owner-v-2.md): Returns the compressed token balances for the given Pubkey.
- [getCompressionSignaturesForAccount](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-compression-signatures-for-account.md): Returns the transaction signatures that closed or opened the compressed account with the given hash.
- [getCompressionSignaturesForAddress](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-compression-signatures-for-address.md): Returns the transaction signatures that closed or opened a compressed account at the given address.

This is for Light-Protocol style compressed accounts that have an address set (rather than the more common hash-only compressed token accounts). Most Pubkeys currently return an empty items array because the addressed-compressed-account namespace is not yet widely populated.

- [getCompressionSignaturesForOwner](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-compression-signatures-for-owner.md): Returns the transaction signatures involving compressed accounts owned by the given Pubkey.

- [getMultipleCompressedAccountProofs](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-multiple-compressed-account-proofs.md): Returns merkle proofs for the compressed accounts with the given hashes.

The Photon API expects the JSON-RPC params array to be the list of hashes itself (each positional element is one hash). The spec models the first two positional slots; pass additional hashes as additional positional elements when needed.

- [getMultipleCompressedAccounts](https://www.alchemy.com/docs/chains/solana/solana-photon-api/solana-photon-api/get-multiple-compressed-accounts.md): Returns the compressed accounts with the given addresses or hashes. Provide either addresses or hashes.

The Photon API expects the JSON-RPC params array to be the list of addresses itself (each positional element is one Pubkey). The spec models the first positional slot; pass additional addresses as additional positional elements when needed.
