How this service works
Decode a BOLT11 Lightning invoice (network, amount, payment_hash, description). ?invoice=lnbc...
Output
A structured breakdown of the decoded BOLT11 Lightning invoice including: the network (mainnet/testnet), the amount in satoshis or millisatoshis, the payment hash (32-byte hex), and the human-readable description embedded in the invoice.
Example use cases
Verify Lightning payment amount before paying
“I got this Lightning invoice from a vendor: lnbc1500u1p3xyz... — can you decode it and tell me how much it's asking for and what the description says before I pay?”
Extract payment hash for reconciliation
“I need to pull the payment hash out of this BOLT11 invoice for my accounting records: lnbc250m1pvjluezpp5... — can you decode it and give me the hash?”
Check which network a Lightning invoice is on
“Is this Lightning invoice for mainnet or testnet? Here it is: lntb100n1p3abc... — please decode it and tell me the network and any other details.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://pyfile-agent.taile3ff35.ts.net:10000/data/bolt11/decodeWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to inspect or validate a BOLT11 Lightning invoice before acting on it — especially to confirm the amount, recipient description, or payment hash without executing any payment. Prefer this over manual parsing libraries when operating in an agent context that requires a lightweight, stateless HTTP call.
Side effects
- Invalid or malformed BOLT11 string returns a parse error
- Missing invoice query parameter results in a 400 bad request
- Expired invoices may still decode successfully but timestamp will indicate expiry
- Testnet invoices starting with lntb are valid but flagged as non-mainnet
- Checksum validation failure if invoice is truncated or corrupted
