BNB Smart Chain method

eth_getTransactionReceipt

Returns the receipt for a mined transaction, including its logs and status.

cheapCheap for a provider to serve — no state is read, or one key is.Primary specification (opens in a new tab)

How each provider handles it

This method has not been measured in this window.

It is scheduled but no observation has landed yet.

What it does

The receipt is how you learn what a transaction did: whether it succeeded, how much gas it used, and which events it emitted. It exists only once the transaction is mined.

Polling this endpoint is how nearly every application waits for a confirmation, which makes it one of the most frequently called methods in production.

Parameters

transactionHashDATA, 32 bytesrequired
The transaction hash.

Returns

Object — the receipt, or null if the transaction is unknown or still pending.

Try it

Runnable as written, against a keyless public endpoint. Nothing here needs an API key.

Request

curl -s https://ethereum-rpc.publicnode.com \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getTransactionReceipt","params":["0x85d995eba9763907fdf35cd2034144dd9d53ce32cbec21349d4b12823c6860c5"],"id":1}'

As JSON-RPC

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "eth_getTransactionReceipt",
  "params": ["0x85d995eba9763907fdf35cd2034144dd9d53ce32cbec21349d4b12823c6860c5"],
  "id": 1
}

Response

{
  "id": 1,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "result": {
    "transactionHash": "0x85d995eba9763907fdf35cd2034144dd9d53ce32cbec21349d4b12823c6860c5",
    "blockNumber": "0x14a2f3b",
    "status": "0x1",
    "gasUsed": "0x5208",
    "logs": []
  }
}

Things that bite

  • status is 0x1 for success and 0x0 for a reverted transaction. A reverted transaction still has a receipt and still consumed gas.
  • null means unknown to this node — pending, dropped, or simply not indexed here. It does not mean the transaction failed.

Why it is measured

The hash is discovered from a block observed moments earlier rather than hard-coded, so the parameter is always a real, recent transaction and never a stale constant that some providers have pruned.

Called every 300 seconds per endpoint, with jitter so the fleet does not hit a provider in lockstep.
