Method not found on Connection.getRecentBlockhash on vanilla javascript

Solution:

  • Check the libraries used: Make sure you are using a library that supports recent block hashing, such assolana-connectorsolo-js. You can check the documentation of the library you are using to see if it provides the latest block hashing functionality.
  • Use thegetRecentBlockhashAsyncmethod: Instead of callinggetRecentBlockhash, try using thegetRecentBlockhashAsync` method, which returns an asynchronous function that retrieves the latest block hash.

Here is an example:

const connection = new Web3Connection(url); // Replace the URL of your Solana wallet

async function getRecentBlockhash() {

const recentHash = await connection.getRecentBlockhashAsync();

return recentHash;

}
