# programSubscribe

## programSubscribe — Subscribe to program-owned account changes

> Subscribe to a program to receive notifications when the lamports or data for an account owned by the given program changes. This method establishes a persistent WebSocket connection that will send real-time notifications whenever accounts owned by the specified program are created, modified, or deleted. You can filter results by data size, account owner, or custom criteria to only receive notifications for accounts that match your requirements.\
> \*\*Parameters\*\*\
> \
> 0\. \`programId\` (required) — Program pubkey, base-58.\
> 1\. \`config\` (optional) — Optional configuration object. Every field is optional; omit the entire object to use defaults.<br>
