DFlow will support the v1 transaction format once Solana activates it on mainnet, targeting Sept 9th. This guide covers how to migrate existing v0 code to v1, and the differences between the two. For more details, see the official Solana documentation. These docs are provided in advance to help users prepare. We encourage upgrading as soon as possible.
Integrations that do not set transactionVersion continue to receive v0 transactions.

v0 vs v1

v1 increases the transaction size limit from 1232 to 4096 bytes. It removes address lookup tables in favor of inline account addresses and rejects duplicate addresses. Priority fees change from a per-compute-unit price to a lamport total, and compute budget configuration moves from ComputeBudget instructions into the transaction message.

Parameter Changes

GET /order

Set transactionVersion to v1 on GET /order.

GET /quote

Set transactionVersion to v1 on GET /quote. This endpoint does not return a transaction; the parameter controls the size limit the route is simulated against, and should match the transactionVersion passed to POST /swap.

POST /swap

transactionVersion works the same way as on GET /order, described above.

POST /swap-instructions

Under v1, computeBudgetInstructions in the response comes back empty. Build the compute budget into the message header yourself from computeUnitLimit, loadedAccountsDataSizeLimit, and prioritizationFeeLamports instead.

Deserializing Transactions

Classic @solana/web3.js can read v1 transactions but can’t build, sign, or send them. Signing and sending a v1 transaction requires @solana/kit 8.0.0+ (or @solana/web3.js@rc, the emerging v3). See the Send Orders recipe for a v1 example.

Priority Fees

In v0, DFlow encodes your priority fee as two values in the transaction: a compute unit limit and a price per compute-unit in micro-lamports. In v1, DFlow encodes the same fee as a single lamport total in the transaction’s config. This changes how DFlow constructs the transaction, not how you request one: prioritizationFeeLamports on GET /order takes the same values (auto, medium, high, veryHigh, or a lamport amount) on both versions.

Reading Transactions

Reading transactions back also changed: pass maxSupportedTransactionVersion: 1 to getTransaction or getBlock to include v1 transactions. See the “For Transaction Readers” section of Solana’s docs.
