Aave V3 Pool Addresses Provider

The PoolAddressesProvider contract is the main registry of addresses that are part of, or connected to the Protocol, including permissioned roles. It acts as a factory of proxies and is the admin of those, and therefore has the right to change its implementations.

The addresses provider manages various protocol modules and has the ability to update pointers (e.g. update the ACLManager contract) or update the implementation of proxy contracts (e.g. update the Pool implementation).

It stores the ACL admin, which receives DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE when the ACLManager is deployed.

Always fetch the Pool address from this PoolAddressesProvider contract.

The source code is available on GitHub.

This contract is owned by the Aave Governance.

Write Methods

setMarketId

Solidity
function setMarketId(string memory newMarketId) external override onlyOwner

Updates the identifier of the Aave market by associating an id with a specific PoolAddressesProvider. This can be used to create an on-chain registry of pool addresses providers to identify and validate multiple Aave markets.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
newMarketIdstringThe new id of the market

setAddress

Solidity
function setAddress(bytes32 id, address newAddress) external override onlyOwner

Sets the address of the protocol contract stored at the given id, replacing the address saved in the addresses map.

For example, utils.keccak256(utils.toUtf8Bytes("INCENTIVES_CONTROLLER")), is set to the address of INCENTIVES_CONTROLLER.

This hard-replaces the current address in the addresses map. Use it carefully.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
idbytes32A bytes32 identifier, e.g. bytes32('POOL') for core contracts or keccak256('INCENTIVES_CONTROLLER') for custom entries
newAddressaddressThe new address to be set corresponding to the id

setAddressAsProxy

Solidity
function setAddressAsProxy(bytes32 id, address newImplementationAddress) external override onlyOwner

Updates the implementation address of a proxy contract with a specified id.

If there is no proxy registered, it will instantiate one and set the implementation as the newImplementationAddress.

Use only for ids without an explicit setter function, to avoid unexpected results.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
idbytes32The id of the proxy contract
newImplementationAddressaddressThe address of new implementation contract corresponding to the proxy

setPoolImpl

Solidity
function setPoolImpl(address newPoolImpl) external override onlyOwner

Updates the implementation of the Pool contract, or creates a proxy.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
newPoolImpladdressThe address of new Pool implementation contract

setPoolConfiguratorImpl

Solidity
function setPoolConfiguratorImpl(address newPoolConfiguratorImpl) external override onlyOwner

Updates the implementation of the PoolConfigurator contract, or creates a proxy.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
newPoolConfiguratorImpladdressThe address of new PoolConfigurator implementation contract

setPriceOracle

Solidity
function setPriceOracle(address newPriceOracle) external override onlyOwner

Updates the address of the price oracle.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
newPriceOracleaddressThe address of new price oracle

setACLManager

Solidity
function setACLManager(address newAclManager) external override onlyOwner

Updates the address of the Access Control List Manager.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
newAclManageraddressThe address of the new ACLManager

setACLAdmin

Solidity
function setACLAdmin(address newAclAdmin) external override onlyOwner

Updates the address of the Access Control List Admin.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
newAclAdminaddressThe address of new ACLAdmin

setPriceOracleSentinel

Solidity
function setPriceOracleSentinel(address newPriceOracleSentinel) external override onlyOwner

Updates the address of the price oracle sentinel. Since Aave V3.7 the Pool no longer reads this address, so it has no effect on borrows or liquidations.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
newPriceOracleSentineladdressThe address of new PriceOracleSentinel

setPoolDataProvider

Solidity
function setPoolDataProvider(address newDataProvider) external override onlyOwner

Updates the address of the data provider.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
newDataProvideraddressThe address of new DataProvider

View Methods

getMarketId

Solidity
function getMarketId() external view override returns (string memory)

Returns the market id of the associated Aave market.

Return Values:

TypeDescription
stringA string representation of the market id

getAddress

Solidity
function getAddress(bytes32 id) public view override returns (address)

Returns the address of protocol contract stored at the given id. The returned address might be an EOA or a contract, which may be proxied. It will return ZERO if there is no registered address with the given id.

Input Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
idbytes32The id. For example, the Protocol Data Provider uses bytes32('DATA_PROVIDER')

Return Values:

TypeDescription
addressThe address associated with the id passed

Example:

TypeScript
import { Contract, getDefaultProvider, keccak256, toUtf8Bytes } from "ethers";

const poolAddressesProvider = new Contract(
  "0x2f39d218133AFaB8F2B819B1066c7E434Ad94E9e",
  ["function getAddress(bytes32 id) view returns (address)"],
  getDefaultProvider()
);

  keccak256(toUtf8Bytes("INCENTIVES_CONTROLLER"))
);
