Add Builders Testnet RPC
How to add Fantom Sonic builders testnet RPC
Add RPC automatically
The Sonic builders testnet dashboard features a button to add the network to your preferred wallet automatically. We use MetaMask for this part of the tutorial, but any wallet that can mimic or inject as MetaMask should work.
Connect wallet
Go to the Sonic builders testnet dashboard
In the top-right corner, click Connect
Choose your desired wallet account and connect
Go to the account page, unless automatically redirected
Configure network
In the Network section, click Add to MetaMask
Ensure the network details in your wallet match those on the web page
Approve the action in your wallet and click Switch network when prompted
Once you are connected to the Sonic builders testnet, you can request various testnet tokens through the Faucet and experience the performance of Sonic with the Sonic Trade feature.
If these steps do not work for you, follow the next part of the tutorial to add the network to your wallet manually.
