Retrieve token balance

How to retrieve the balance of a token for a wallet

Introduction

To fetch the balance of a certain token for a wallet, you need to call the function getTokenBalance which will return a promise containing a TokenBalance object. If you need the entire balance a certain wallet holds, it is recommended to use the getTokenBalances function.

Function:

venlyConnect.api.getTokenBalance("<WALLET_ID>", "<TOKEN_ADDRESS>");
venlyConnect.api.getTokenBalanceByAddress("<SECRET_TYPE", "<WALLET_ADDRESS>", "<TOKEN_ADDRESS>");

Example:

const venlyConnect = new VenlyConnect('YOUR_CLIENT_ID'); 
venlyConnect.api.getTokenBalance("c8ec9954-fa1a-4682-9cf8-ef5c1015d1d1","0x7d1afa7b718fb893db30a3abc0cfc608aacfebb0").then((tokenBalance) => {
 console.log("The balance of",tokenBalance.symbol,"is",tokenBalance.balance);
})

Returns:

{
  tokenAddress: "0xab7950c514d156ea506090da62ffa1f6915efd6a",
  rawBalance: "50000000000000000000",
