Quick Start with Synapse SDK

The Synapse SDK is your gateway to Filecoin Onchain Cloud — a decentralized, programmable cloud platform built on Filecoin. This comprehensive guide will walk you through everything you need to know to start building with the SDK.

The Synapse SDK provides an interface to Filecoin’s decentralized services ecosystem:

🚀 Recommended Usage: Use the high-level Synapse class for a streamlined experience with sensible defaults
🔧 Composable Components: Import and use individual components for fine-grained control over specific functionality

The SDK handles all the complexity of blockchain interactions, provider selection, and data management, so you can focus on building your application.

What You’ll Learn

By the end of this guide, you’ll understand how to:

Install and configure the Synapse SDK
Connect to Filecoin networks (mainnet and calibration)
Manage payments and allowances
Upload and download data with Synapse SDK
Use advanced features like CDN and custom providers

Prerequisites

Before installing the Synapse SDK, make sure you have the following:

Node.js 20 or higher installed.
A supported package manager (npm, yarn, or pnpm).
Added Filecoin Calibration into you MetaMask.

Get Test Tokens

Before you start building with Synapse SDK, you’ll need to request test tokens from faucets to pay transaction fees and storage fees. For the calibration testnet:

Get tFIL tokens:

Visit the Filecoin Calibration Faucet
Enter your wallet address to receive free tFIL tokens
You need FIL for gas fees

Get test USDFC tokens:

Visit the Filecoin Calibration USDFC Faucet
Enter your wallet address to receive free test USDFC tokens
You need USDFC for storage payments

Installation

The Synapse SDK requires Node.js 20+ and can be installed via npm, yarn, or pnpm:

npm install @filoz/synapse-sdk ethers

Note: ethers v6 is a peer dependency and must be installed separately.

Quick Start Example

The Synapse class provides a complete, easy-to-use interface for interacting with Filecoin storage services.

Get started with storage in just a few lines of code.

var console: Console
The console module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the
JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.
The module exports two specific components:

A Console class with methods such as console.log(), console.error() and console.warn() that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
A global console instance configured to write to process.stdout and
process.stderr. The global console can be used without importing the node:console module.

Warning: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the note on process I/O for
more information.
Example using the global console:
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
//   Error: Whoops, something bad happened
//     at [eval]:5:15
//     at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
//     at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)

//     at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
//     at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
//     at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3

const name = 'Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr
Example using the Console class:
const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);

myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err

The console module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the
JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.
The module exports two specific components:

A Console class with methods such as console.log(), console.error() and console.warn() that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
A global console instance configured to write to process.stdout and
process.stderr. The global console can be used without importing the node:console module.

Warning: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the note on process I/O for
more information.
Example using the global console:
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));

var console: Console
The console module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the
JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.
The module exports two specific components:

A Console class with methods such as console.log(), console.error() and console.warn() that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
A global console instance configured to write to process.stdout and
process.stderr. The global console can be used without importing the node:console module.

Warning: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the note on process I/O for
more information.
Example using the global console:
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
//   Error: Whoops, something bad happened
//     at [eval]:5:15
//     at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
//     at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)
//     at node:internal/process/execution:77:19
//     at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
//     at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
//     at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3

const name = 'Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr
Example using the Console class:
const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);

myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');

What you just did:

✅ Initialized synapse SDK for Filecoin Calibration
✅ Deposited USDFC as payment tokens
✅ Authorized the storage service to use the token
✅ Uploaded data to decentralized storage
✅ Retrieved it using only the content address

Now let’s break down each step…

1: Initialize the SDK

First, set up the Synapse SDK with your credentials. We use wallet priviate key here as an example, but you can definitely inject signer from any wallet providers, such as MetaMask or wallet connect.

// Initialize SDK with your private key and RPC endpoint
const 
const synapse: Synapse
synapse = await 
class Synapse
Synapse.
Synapse.create(options: SynapseOptions): Promise<Synapse>
create({
  
SynapseOptions.privateKey?: string
privateKey: "YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY",
  
SynapseOptions.rpcURL?: string
rpcURL: 
const RPC_URLS: Record<FilecoinNetworkType, {
    http: string;
    websocket: string;
}>
RPC_URLS.
calibration: {
    http: string;
    websocket: string;
}
calibration.
http: string
http,
})

2: Payment Setup

Before storing data, you need to deposit USDFC tokens in your payments account. The amount you deposit is entirely up to your anticipated storage and retrieval needs.

// Check current USDFC balance
const 
const walletBalance: bigint
walletBalance = await 
const synapse: Synapse
synapse.
Synapse.payments: PaymentsService
payments.
PaymentsService.walletBalance(token?: TokenIdentifier): Promise<bigint>

    readonly FIL: "FIL";
}

type USDFC: "USDFC"
USDFC);
const 
const formattedBalance: string
formattedBalance = 
import ethers
ethers.
function formatUnits(value: ethers.BigNumberish, unit?: string | ethers.Numeric): string
export formatUnits
Converts %%value%% into a //decimal string//, assuming %%unit%% decimal
places. The %%unit%% may be the number of decimal places or the name of
a unit (e.g. "gwei" for 9 decimal places).
formatUnits(
const walletBalance: bigint
walletBalance, 18);

const 
const depositAmount: bigint
depositAmount = 
import ethers
ethers.
function parseUnits(value: string, unit?: string | ethers.Numeric): bigint
export parseUnits
Converts the //decimal string// %%value%% to a BigInt, assuming
%%unit%% decimal places. The %%unit%% may the number of decimal places
or the name of a unit (e.g. "gwei" for 9 decimal places).
parseUnits("2.5", 18) // 2.5 USDFC

// Validate sufficient balance before proceeding
if (
const walletBalance: bigint
walletBalance < 
const depositAmount: bigint
depositAmount) {
  throw new 
var Error: ErrorConstructor
new (message?: string) => Error
Error("Insufficient USDFC balance in wallet");
}

// Deposit USDFC for payment and approve Warm Storage service
const 
const tx: ethers.TransactionResponse
tx = await 
const synapse: Synapse
synapse.
Synapse.payments: PaymentsService

TransactionResponse.wait(_confirms?: number, _timeout?: number): Promise<null | ethers.TransactionReceipt>
Resolves once this transaction has been mined and has
%%confirms%% blocks including it (default: 1) with an
optional %%timeout%%.
This can resolve to null only if %%confirms%% is 0
and the transaction has not been mined, otherwise this will
wait until enough confirmations have completed.

Quick Examples

Advanced Storage with Contexts

For more control over provider selection and data set management:

// Create a storage context with specific provider
const 
const context: StorageContext
context = await 
const synapse: Synapse
synapse.
Synapse.storage: StorageManager
storage.
StorageManager.createContext(options?: StorageServiceOptions): Promise<StorageContext>
createContext({
  
StorageServiceOptions.providerId?: number
providerId: 1, // Use specific provider
  
StorageServiceOptions.withCDN?: boolean
withCDN: true, // Enable CDN for faster retrieval
  
StorageServiceOptions.metadata?: Record<string, string>
metadata: {
    
category: string
category: "documents",
    
version: string
version: "1.0",
  },
});

// Upload to this specific context
const 
const result: UploadResult
result = await 
const context: StorageContext
context.
StorageContext.upload(data: Uint8Array | ArrayBuffer, options?: UploadOptions): Promise<UploadResult>
upload(
const data: Uint8Array<ArrayBufferLike>
data);

// Download from this context
const 
const downloaded: Uint8Array<ArrayBufferLike>
downloaded = await 
const context: StorageContext
context.
StorageContext.download(pieceCid: string | PieceCID, options?: DownloadOptions): Promise<Uint8Array>
download(
const result: UploadResult
result.
UploadResult.pieceCid: PieceLink
pieceCid);

providerId: By specifying providerId, you tell Synapse SDK to store (and later retrieve) your data specifically with that provider.
withCDN: Setting withCDN: true enables Filecoin Beam, the decentralized retrieval and delivery layer. So global users can download data faster, and pay-by-egress billing.
metadata: Attach custom key-value pairs to your data set for easy categorization, tagging, or later querying. This metadata is stored on-chain and can be used by apps or indexing systems.

Finding Service Providers

// Get all approved providers
const 
const storageInfo: StorageInfo
storageInfo = await 
const synapse: Synapse
synapse.
Synapse.storage: StorageManager
storage.
StorageManager.getStorageInfo(): Promise<StorageInfo>
getStorageInfo();
const 
const providers: ProviderInfo[]
providers = 
const storageInfo: StorageInfo
storageInfo.
StorageInfo.providers: ProviderInfo[]

Console.log(message?: any, ...optionalParams: any[]): void (+1 overload)
Prints to stdout with newline. Multiple arguments can be passed, with the
first used as the primary message and all additional used as substitution
values similar to printf(3)
(the arguments are all passed to util.format()).
const count = 5;
console.log('count: %d', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout
console.log('count:', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout
See util.format() for more information.

var console: Console
The console module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the
JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.
The module exports two specific components:

A Console class with methods such as console.log(), console.error() and console.warn() that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
A global console instance configured to write to process.stdout and
process.stderr. The global console can be used without importing the node:console module.

Warning: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the note on process I/O for
more information.
Example using the global console:
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:

Console.table(tabularData: any, properties?: readonly string[]): void (+1 overload)
Try to construct a table with the columns of the properties of tabularData (or use properties) and rows of tabularData and log it. Falls back to just
logging the argument if it can't be parsed as tabular.
// These can't be parsed as tabular data
