Connect to Sui Devnet |
Use the Sui Devnet network to experiment with the version of Sui running on the Devnet network.
The Sui Devnet network consists of:
- Four validator nodes operated by Mysten Labs. Clients send transactions and read requests via this endpoint:
https://fullnode.devnet.sui.io:443
using JSON-RPC. - A public network Sui Explorer for browsing transaction history.
You can request test SUI tokens through the Sui devnet-faucet Discord channel. These coins have no financial value. With each Sui release, the network resets and removes all assets (coins and NFTs).
See announcements about Sui Devnet in the #devnet-updates Discord channel.
See the terms of service for using the Devnet network.
Sui provides the following tools to interact with Sui Devnet:
- Sui command line interface (CLI)
- create and manage your private keys
- create example NFTs
- call and publish Move modules
- Sui Explorer to view transactions and objects on the network
First, Install Sui. After you install Sui, request SUI test tokens through Discord.
To check whether Sui is already installed, run the following command:
which sui
If Sui is installed, the command returns the path to the Sui binary. If Sui is not installed, it returns sui not found
.
See the Sui Releases page to view the changes in each Sui release.
If you previously ran sui genesis -f
to create a local network, it created a Sui client configuration file (client.yaml) that connects to localhost
http://0.0.0.0:9000
. See Connect to custom RPC endpoint to update the client.yaml file.
To connect the Sui client to Sui Devnet, run the following command:
sui client
The first time you start Sui client, it displays the following message:
Config file ["/Users/dir/.sui/sui_config/client.yaml"] doesn't exist, do you want to connect to a Sui Full node server [y/N]?
Press y and then press Enter. It then asks for the RPC server URL:
Sui Full node server URL (default to Sui Devnet if not specified) :
Press Enter to connect to Sui Devnet. To use a custom RPC server, enter the URL to the custom RPC endpoint and then press Enter.
Select key scheme to generate keypair (0 for ed25519, 1 for secp256k1, 2 for secp256r1):
Press 0, 1, or 2 to select a key scheme.
Sui returns a message similar to the following (depending on the key scheme you selected) that includes the address and 24-word recovery phrase for the address:
Generated new keypair for address with scheme "ed25519" [0xb9c83a8b40d3263c9ba40d551514fbac1f8c12e98a4005a0dac072d3549c2442]
Secret Recovery Phrase : [cap wheat many line human lazy few solid bored proud speed grocery raise erode there idea inform culture cousin shed sniff author spare carpet]
If you previously used sui genesis
with the force option (-f
or --force
), your client.yaml file already includes two RPC endpoints: localnet http://0.0.0.0:9000
and devnet https://fullnode.devnet.sui.io:443
). You can view the defined environments with the sui client envs
command, and switch between them with the sui client switch
command.
If you previously installed a Sui client that connected to the Devnet network, or created a local network, you can modify your existing client.yaml
to change the configured RPC endpoint:
To add a custom RPC endpoint, run the following command. Replace values in <
>
with values for your installation:
sui client new-env --alias <ALIAS> --rpc <RPC>
To switch the active network, run the following command:
sui client switch --env <ALIAS>
If you encounter an issue, delete the Sui configuration directory (~/.sui/sui_config
) and reinstall the latest Sui binaries.
Note that in the following sections, the object ID's, addresses, and authority signatures used are example values only. Sui generates unique values for each of these, so you see different values when you run the commands.
- Join Discord. If you try to join the Sui Discord channel using a newly created Discord account you may need to wait a few days for validation.
- Get your Sui client address:
sui client active-address
- Request test SUI tokens in the Sui #devnet-faucet Discord channel.
Send the following message to the channel with your client address:
!faucet
<Your client address>
To create a Non-Fungible Token (NFT), run:
sui client create-example-nft
The command returns a response similar to the following:

The package publish operation creates several objects:
- A package object (with ID
0x0afb60ea71302446ba4bf3a1e7b0c20a644db634fd2f0e32aa4ca9354dcfa4f8
in the example output). - A
Forge
object (with ID0x76c0ad2883daba4707184b34389abc8296f864bfc2efb12f13f7022a477d4a6f
in the example output) as a result of running a module initializer for the one (and only) module of this package. - An
UpgradeCap
object (with ID0x7883028e68250215bcec8856f4fbce1e5edb813e58115230549768288dd1dcc9
in the example output) for use in future package upgrades.
You can check the details of each object using the sui client object <OBJECT_ID>
command or by using the Sui Explorer.
When you publish a package, the IDs for the objects the compiler creates are different than the ones displayed in this example. The remainder of this topic uses <PACKAGE_ID>
and <FORGE_ID>
to represent the IDs for the created objects (except for console output examples). You must replace these with the values for your package.
This section describes how to call into functions defined in the package published in the previous section. Use the (<PACKAGE_ID>
) and (<FORGE_ID>
) values from your package to create swords and transfer them to other players.
To demonstrate this, <PLAYER_ADDRESS>
represents the address of the player to receive a sword. You can use an address of someone you know, or create another address for testing with the following Sui Client CLI command:
sui client new-address ed25519
The command returns the following message and a 24-word recovery phrase for the address:
Created new keypair for address with scheme ED25519: [0xa01cd0c520f12a1e9d57bf3cc6ea0f8cf93e81e9fe46f7b4916c310a809dfddd]
Secret Recovery Phrase : [sunny tip element salad frequent february amount notice chair kite race push noise ketchup that same cannon bench mirror please dinosaur indicate violin sunset]
To create a sword and transfer it to another player, we use the following command to call the sword_create
function in the my_module
module of the package we previously published.
You must use the same format for the command and function parameters as the example shown.
sui client call --function sword_create --module my_module --package 0x<PACKAGE_ID> --args \"0x<FORGE_ID>\" 42 7 \"0x<PLAYER_ADDRESS>\" --gas-budget 30000

Go to the Sui Explorer to observe a newly created object. You should see a sword object created with Magic
property of 42
and Strength
property of 7
and transferred to the new owner.
