# Get token balances of an avatar

You can use the `avatar.balances` helpers to read Circles balances with automatic v1/v2 handling. These methods rely on RPC only and work as soon as the SDK instance is initialized with a runner.

### Get Total Balance

```ts
const totalBalance = await avatar.balances.getTotal();
console.log(`Total Circles balance: ${totalBalance.toString()}`);
```

* Automatically checks the correct hub version based on `avatar.avatarInfo`.
* Returns the sum of all Circles holdings (unwrapped + wrapped) for the avatar address.

### Get Token Balances

```ts
const tokenBalances = await avatar.balances.getTokenBalances();

tokenBalances.forEach((balance) => {
  console.log(`Token: ${balance.token}, Balance: ${balance.amount}`);
});
```

* Returns an array of `TokenBalanceRow` entries for every token relevant to the avatar in the current context.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.aboutcircles.com/circles-sdk/circles-avatars/personal-human-avatars/get-token-balances-of-an-avatar.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
