getConfirmedTransaction RPC Method

Edit Page

Returns transaction details for a confirmed transaction

Deprecated Method

This method is expected to be removed in solana-core v2.0. Please use getTransaction instead.

Parameters #

string required

transaction signature, as base-58 encoded string

object optional

Configuration object containing the following fields:

commitment string optional

encoding string optional

Default: json

Encoding format for Account data

Values: jsonbase58base64jsonParsed

base58 is slow and limited to less than 129 bytes of Account data.
jsonParsed encoding attempts to use program-specific instruction 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
