getTransaction RPC Method

Returns transaction details for a confirmed transaction

Parameters

string required

Transaction signature, as base-58 encoded string

object optional

Configuration object containing the following fields:

commitment string optional

processed is not supported.

maxSupportedTransactionVersion number optional

Set the max transaction version to return in responses. If the requested transaction is a higher version, an error will be returned. If this parameter is omitted, only legacy transactions will be returned, and any versioned transaction will prompt the error.

encoding string optional

Default: json

Encoding for the returned Transaction

Values: jsonjsonParsedbase64base58

jsonParsed encoding attempts to use program-specific state parsers to return more human-readable and explicit data in the transaction.message.instructions list.
If jsonParsed is requested but a parser cannot be found, the instruction falls back to regular JSON encoding (accounts, data, and programIdIndex fields).

Result

<null> - if transaction is not found or not confirmed
<object> - if transaction is confirmed, an object with the following fields:
- slot: <u64> - the slot this transaction was processed in
- transaction: <object|[string,encoding]> - Transaction object, either in JSON format or encoded binary data, depending on encoding parameter
- blockTime: <i64|null> - estimated production time, as Unix timestamp (seconds since the Unix epoch) of when the transaction was processed. null if not available
- meta: <object|null> - transaction status metadata object:
  - err: <object|null> - Error if transaction failed, null if transaction succeeded. TransactionError definitions
  - fee: <u64> - fee this transaction was charged, as u64 integer
  - preBalances: <array> - array of u64 account balances from before the transaction was processed
  - postBalances: <array> - array of u64 account balances after the transaction was processed
  - innerInstructions: <array|null> - List of inner instructions or null if inner instruction recording was not enabled during this transaction
  - preTokenBalances: <array|undefined> - List of token balances from before the transaction was processed or omitted if token balance recording was not yet enabled during this transaction
  - postTokenBalances: <array|undefined> - List of token balances from after the transaction was processed or omitted if token balance recording was not yet enabled during this transaction
  - logMessages: <array|null> - array of string log messages or null if log message recording was not enabled during this transaction
  - DEPRECATED: status: <object> - Transaction status
    - "Ok": <null> - Transaction was successful
    - "Err": <ERR> - Transaction failed with TransactionError
  - rewards: <array|null> - transaction-level rewards, populated if rewards are requested; an array of JSON objects containing:
    - pubkey: <string> - The public key, as base-58 encoded string, of the account that received the reward
    - lamports: <i64>- number of reward lamports credited or debited by the account, as a i64
    - postBalance: <u64> - account balance in lamports after the reward was applied
    - rewardType: <string> - type of reward: currently only "rent", other types may be added in the future
    - commission: <u8|undefined> - vote account commission when the reward was credited, only present for voting and staking rewards
  - loadedAddresses: <object|undefined> - Transaction addresses loaded from address lookup tables. Undefined if maxSupportedTransactionVersion is not set in request params, or if jsonParsed encoding is set in request params.
    - writable: <array[string]> - Ordered list of base-58 encoded addresses for writable loaded accounts
    - readonly: <array[string]> - Ordered list of base-58 encoded addresses for readonly loaded accounts
  - returnData: <object|undefined> - the most-recent return data generated by an instruction in the transaction, with the following fields:
    - programId: <string> - the program that generated the return data, as base-58 encoded Pubkey
    - data: <[string, encoding]> - the return data itself, as base-64 encoded binary data
  - computeUnitsConsumed: <u64|undefined> - number of compute units consumed by the transaction
- version: <"legacy"|number|undefined> - Transaction version. Undefined if maxSupportedTransactionVersion is not set in request params.
