Transactions

Retrieve a transaction by ID

This endpoint allows you to retrieve a transaction identified by its ID. If the pending parameter is set to true, the response may include a pending transaction with a null meta field. Use this option when you want to retrieve pending transactions, providing flexibility in accessing real-time transaction data.

If no transaction is found, the response will be be a 200 with a null body.

Send a transaction

This endpoint allows you to send a transaction to the blockchain. The transaction must be signed and RLP encoded.

The below is a TypeScript example of how to sign and RLP encode a transaction using the thor-devkit library:

import { Transaction, secp256k1 } from 'thor-devkit'

const clauses = [{
    to: '0x7567d83b7b8d80addcb281a71d54fc7b3364ffed',
    value: 10000,
    data: '0x'
}]

let body: Transaction.Body = {
    chainTag: '0x4a',
    blockRef: '0x0000000000000000',
    expiration: 32,
    clauses: clauses,
    gasPriceCoef: 128,
    gas: Transaction.intrinsicGas(clauses),
    dependsOn: null,
    nonce: 12345678
}

const tx = new Transaction(body)
const signingHash = tx.signingHash()
tx.signature = secp256k1.sign(signingHash, Buffer.from("99f0500549792796c14fed62011a51081dc5b5e68fe8bd8a13b86be829c4fd36", "hex"))

const raw = tx.encode()
const decoded = Transaction.decode(raw)

axios.post('http://localhost:8669/transactions', {
  raw: '0x' + raw.toString('hex')
})

POSThttps://vet.nownodes.io/transactions

Body

application/json

rawstring (hex)

The raw RLP encoded transaction.
