Using API

[zachariahevans174]

I was looking at the initial way to set up the Tron Node and server. How do I obtain my private key using the API or is it possible to transfer using api without the private key.

You must create an account first. An account includes a private key and an address. The method is as below:

const account = TronWeb.createAccount();

It already shows my main and side public keys.

Did you mean to obtain the genesis account? It is exists in the No.0 block. You can obtain it by using api below:

tronWeb.trx.getBlockByNumber(0);
