# balance\_of

An entrypoint that retrieves a user's LP tokens amount and sends it to the callback contract. Works exactly like FA2 **balance\_of** entrypoint according to [TZIP-012](https://gitlab.com/tezos/tzip/-/blob/master/proposals/tzip-12/tzip-12.md).

### Call parameters

```pascaligo
type token_id_t         is nat

type balance_request_t  is [@layout:comb] record [
  owner                   : address;
  token_id                : token_id_t;
]

type balance_response_t is [@layout:comb] record [
  request                 : balance_request_t;
  balance                 : nat;
]

type balance_of_t       is [@layout:comb] record [
  requests                : list(balance_request_t);
  callback                : contract(list(balance_response_t));
]
```

{% tab title="🌮 Taquito" %}

```javascript

        owner: "tz1.../KT1...",
        token_id: 1,
    },
    ...
];
const dexCore = await tezos.contract.at(dexCoreAddress);
const result = await dexCore.contract.views
  .balance_of(params)
  .read();
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
