Faucet

To get started with the SDK it can be helpful get some Sui tokens to play with. The faucet is a simple way to get some tokens sent to your address in testnet, devnet or localnet if you are running your own network locally for development.

You can request sui from the faucet using the @mysten/sui.js/faucet package.

import { requestSuiFromFaucetV0, getFaucetHost } from '@mysten/sui.js/faucet';
 
await requestSuiFromFaucetV0({
	host: getFaucetHost('testnet'),
	recipient: '0xcc2bd176a478baea9a0de7a24cd927661cc6e860d5bacecb9a138ef20dbab231',
});

The sui faucet is rate limited, so after making this call you may not be able to request more sui for a while. The exact limits depend on which network you are connecting to.
