Overview

eth_getTransactionReceipt is an method that retrieves the transaction receipt of a given transaction hash. This method is particularly useful when you need to obtain detailed information about a transaction's execution, such as its status (success or failure), gas usage, and logs (events). Common use cases include checking the status of a transaction after it has been mined or inspecting the events emitted by a smart contract during a specific transaction.

Parameters

This method requires a single parameter:

transactionHash: The hash of the transaction for which you want to obtain the receipt.
- Example: "0xa536596d043c03d709aaccbc53f421963fe3537274e86444cd984404cf9ecb13"

Return Object

The method returns an object containing the following fields:

transactionHash: The hash of the transaction.
transactionIndex: The transaction's index position in the block.
blockHash: The hash of the block where this transaction was mined.
blockNumber: The block number where this transaction was mined.
from: The address of the sender.
to: The address of the receiver. null when it's a contract creation transaction.
cumulativeGasUsed: The total amount of gas used when this transaction was executed in the block.
gasUsed: The amount of gas used by this specific transaction alone.
contractAddress: The address of the contract created, if the transaction was a contract creation. Otherwise, null.
logs: An array of log objects, which were emitted during the transaction.
logsBloom: A 256-byte bloom filter, which is a compressed representation of the logs emitted during the transaction.
status: The status of the transaction's execution. "0x1" indicates success, while "0x0" indicates failure.
