How to get the balance of Solana accoount?

[Chandra-Sekhar-Bala]

How do I get the account balance of Solana by providing public address?

[Shpota]

You can get it using the getBalance() function.

val connection = Connection(rpcUrl)
val wallet = PublicKey("DxPv2QMA5cWR5Xfg7tXr5YtJ1EEStg5Kiag9HhkY1mSx")
val balance = connection.getBalance(wallet)

Please check integration tests or this repository to find ready-to-run examples.

Thanks @Shpota, This works on getting account balance.
But account details comes null.

code:

val publicKey: PublicKey = PublicKey(keypair.publicKey.toBase58())
val balanceResponse = connection.getBalance(publicKey)
val account = connection.getAccountInfo(keypair.publicKey)
logThis("Sol Balance Response: $balanceResponse")
logThis("Sol Account Response: $account")             

Logcat:

Sol Balance Response: 0
Sol Account Response: null

getAccountInfo returns null if account doesn't exist. You can find more details in the getAccountInfo RPC documentation. Make sure the account exists on-chain and that you are using a proper network (dev/test/mainnet).
