  title: Infura (MetaMask Developer) WebSocket Subscription API
  version: '1.0.0'
  description: |
    AsyncAPI specification for Infura's (now MetaMask Developer Services)
    Ethereum-compatible WebSocket JSON-RPC subscription interface.

    Infura now defers its Ethereum reference documentation to the MetaMask
    Developer docs site. Subscription methods (`eth_subscribe`,
    `eth_unsubscribe`) are exposed exclusively over WebSocket (WSS) and
    enable real-time, stateful notifications driven by the
    `eth_subscription` JSON-RPC notification envelope.

    Per the official documentation, Ethereum exposes three subscription
    types: `newHeads`, `logs`, and `newPendingTransactions`. The
    `syncing` subscription type is not enumerated in Infura/MetaMask
    Developer Ethereum reference docs and therefore is not modeled here.

      Infura WebSocket endpoint. The `network` path segment selects the
      target chain and the `projectId` (also referred to as the API key)
      authenticates the request.

      Per the MetaMask Developer "WebSockets" concepts page, the
      following networks support WebSocket subscriptions: Arbitrum,
      Avalanche (C-Chain), Base, Binance Smart Chain, Blast, Ethereum,
      Linea, Mantle, opBNB, Optimism, Polygon, Scroll, and ZKsync Era.
      WebSocket support is in public beta for Arbitrum, Avalanche
      (C-Chain), BNB, opBNB, and Optimism.

        During a reorg the subscription emits all new headers for the new
        chain, so the subscription may emit multiple headers at the same

    LogsNotification:

      description: |
        Returns logs that are included in new imported blocks and match
        the supplied filter criteria. In case of a chain reorganization,
        previously sent logs that are on the old chain are re-sent with
        the `removed` property set to `true`, and logs from transactions
        that ended up in the new chain are emitted. A subscription can
        therefore emit logs for the same transaction multiple times.

        Infura strongly recommends specifying a filter (`address`,
        `topics`, or both) when subscribing to `logs`.

        the canonical chain isn't part of the new canonical chain after
        a reorganization, it's emitted again.

        Per the Infura concepts page, an event is generated roughly
        every 700-800ms aggregating pending transactions collected
        during that window. The `newPendingTransactions` subscription
        type is not available on all supported networks.
