bor_getSigners

Last updated:

`bor_getSigners` returns the set of validator addresses authorized to sign at a given block on Polygon's Bor consensus layer. The result is a flat array of `0x`-prefixed addresses.

This is a Bor-consensus-specific method — it is not part of the standard EVM / Geth namespace and is only meaningful on Polygon. It belongs to the premium `bor_*` family, so a **Pro** tier key (scope `polygon_bor`) is required.

The signer list it returns is a **subset of `bor_getSnapshot`'s `validators` field** and exists mainly for legacy compatibility. If you need richer consensus state — stake/power per validator, the proposer-rotation accumulator, or the recent-signers history — prefer [`bor_getSnapshot`](./bor_getSnapshot.md), which returns all of it in one call. Reach for `bor_getSigners` when you only need the bare authorized-signer set at a block.
