API Providers
=============
EtherscanProvider
-----------------
#### **new ***ethers* . *providers* . **EtherscanProvider**( [ network = "homestead" , [ apiKey ] ] )
Create a new **EtherscanProvider** connected to *network* with the optional *apiKey*.
The *network* may be specified as **string** for a common network name, a **number** for a common chain ID or a [Network Object]provider-(network).
If no *apiKey* is provided, a shared API key will be used, which may result in reduced performance and throttled requests. It is highly recommended for production, you register with [Etherscan](https://etherscan.io) for your own API key.
#### Note: Default API keys
If no *apiKey* is provided, a shared API key will be used, which may result in reduced performance and throttled requests.
It is highly recommended for production, you register with [Etherscan](https://etherscan.io) for your own API key.
#### **Supported Networks**
- Homestead (Mainnet)
- Ropsten (proof-of-work testnet)
- Rinkeby (proof-of-authority testnet)
- Gorli (clique testnet)
- Kovan (proof-of-authority testnet)
```javascript
// <hide>
const EtherscanProvider = ethers.providers.EtherscanProvider;
const apiKey = "...";
// </hide>
// Connect to mainnet (homestead)
provider = new EtherscanProvider();
// Connect to rinkeby testnet (these are equivalent)
provider = new EtherscanProvider("rinkeby");
provider = new EtherscanProvider(4);
const network = ethers.providers.getNetwork("rinkeby");
// <hide>
delete network._defaultProvider;
network
// </hide>
//!
provider = new EtherscanProvider(network);
// Connect to mainnet (homestead) with an API key
provider = new EtherscanProvider(null, apiKey);
provider = new EtherscanProvider("homestead", apiKey);
```

InfuraProvider
--------------
#### **new ***ethers* . *providers* . **InfuraProvider**( [ network = "homestead" , [ apiKey ] ] )
Create a new **InfuraProvider** connected to *network* with the optional *apiKey*.
The *network* may be specified as **string** for a common network name, a **number** for a common chain ID or a [Network Object]provider-(network).
The *apiKey* can be a **string** Project ID or an **object** with the properties `projectId` and `projectSecret` to specify a [Project Secret](https://infura.io/docs/gettingStarted/authentication) which can be used on non-public sources (like on a server) to further secure your API access and quotas.
#### Note: Default API keys
If no *apiKey* is provided, a shared API key will be used, which may result in reduced performance and throttled requests.
It is highly recommended for production, you register with [INFURA](https://infura.io) for your own API key.
#### **Supported Networks**
- Homestead (Mainnet)
- Ropsten (proof-of-work testnet)
- Rinkeby (proof-of-authority testnet)
- Gorli (clique testnet)
- Kovan (proof-of-authority testnet)
```javascript
// <hide>
const InfuraProvider = ethers.providers.InfuraProvider;
const projectId = "...";
const projectSecret = "...";
// </hide>
// Connect to mainnet (homestead)
provider = new InfuraProvider();
// Connect to the ropsten testnet
// (see EtherscanProvider above for other network examples)
provider = new InfuraProvider("ropsten");
// Connect to mainnet with a Project ID (these are equivalent)
provider = new InfuraProvider(null, projectId);
provider = new InfuraProvider("homestead", projectId);
// Connect to mainnet with a Project ID and Project Secret
provider = new InfuraProvider("homestead", {
projectId: projectId,
projectSecret: projectSecret
});
```
AlchemyProvider
---------------
#### **new ***ethers* . *providers* . **AlchemyProvider**( [ network = "homestead" , [ apiKey ] ] )
Create a new **AlchemyProvider** connected to *network* with the optional *apiKey*.
The *network* may be specified as **string** for a common network name, a **number** for a common chain ID or a [Network Object](/v5/api/providers/types/#providers-Network).
#### Note: Default API keys
If no *apiKey* is provided, a shared API key will be used, which may result in reduced performance and throttled requests.
It is highly recommended for production, you register with [Alchemy](https://alchemyapi.io) for your own API key.
#### **Supported Networks**
- Homestead (Mainnet)
- Ropsten (proof-of-work testnet)
- Rinkeby (proof-of-authority testnet)
- Gorli (clique testnet)
- Kovan (proof-of-authority testnet)
```javascript
// <hide>
const AlchemyProvider = ethers.providers.AlchemyProvider;
const apiKey = "...";
// </hide>
// Connect to mainnet (homestead)
provider = new AlchemyProvider();
// Connect to the ropsten testnet
// (see EtherscanProvider above for other network examples)
provider = new AlchemyProvider("ropsten");
// Connect to mainnet with an API key (these are equivalent)
provider = new AlchemyProvider(null, apiKey);
provider = new AlchemyProvider("homestead", apiKey);
```
CloudflareProvider
------------------
#### **new ***ethers* . *providers* . **CloudflareProvider**( )
Create a new **CloudflareProvider** connected to mainnet (i.e. "homestead").
#### **Supported Networks**
- Homestead (Mainnet)
```javascript
// <hide>
const CloudflareProvider = ethers.providers.CloudflareProvider;
// </hide>
// Connect to mainnet (homestead)
provider = new CloudflareProvider();
```
