Transactions


Send transaction (async)

Sends a transaction and immediately returns transaction hash.

  • method: broadcast_tx_async
  • params: [SignedTransaction encoded in base64]

Example:


“`json
{
“jsonrpc”: “2.0”,
“id”: “dontcare”,
“method”: “broadcast_tx_async”,
“params”: [
“DgAAAHNlbmRlci50ZXN0bmV0AOrmAai64SZOv9e/naX4W15pJx0GAap35wTT1T/DwcbbDwAAAAAAAAAQAAAAcmVjZWl2ZXIudGVzdG5ldNMnL7URB1cxPOu3G8jTqlEwlcasagIbKlAJlF5ywVFLAQAAAAMAAACh7czOG8LTAAAAAAAAAGQcOG03xVSFQFjoagOb4NBBqWhERnnz45LY4+52JgZhm1iQKz7qAdPByrGFDQhQ2Mfga8RlbysuQ8D8LlA6bQE=”

Final transaction results can be queried using Transaction Status
or NEAR Explorer using the above result hash returning a result similar to the example below.

What could go wrong?

When API request fails, RPC server returns a structured error response with a limited number of well-defined error variants, so client code can exhaustively handle all the possible error cases. Our JSON-RPC errors follow verror convention for structuring the error response:

{
    "error": {
        "name": <ERROR_TYPE>,
        "cause": {
            "info": {..},
            "name": <ERROR_CAUSE>
        },
        "code": -32000,
        "data": String,
        "message": "Server error",
    },
    "id": "dontcare",
    "jsonrpc": "2.0"
}

REQUEST_VALIDATION_ERROR PARSE_ERROR Passed arguments can’t be parsed by JSON RPC server (missing arguments, wrong format, etc.)
  • Check the arguments passed and pass the correct ones

Send transaction (await)

Sends a transaction and waits until transaction is fully complete. (Has a 10 second timeout)

  • method: broadcast_tx_commit
  • params: [SignedTransaction encoded in base64]

TIMEOUT_ERROR Transaction was routed, but has not been recorded on chain in 10 seconds.
  • Re-submit the request with the identical transaction (in NEAR Protocol unique transactions apply exactly once, so if the previously sent transaction gets applied, this request will just return the known result, otherwise, it will route the transaction to the chain once again)
  • Check that your transaction is valid
  • Check that the signer account id has enough tokens to cover the transaction fees (keep in mind that some tokens on each account are locked to cover the storage cost)

  • Check the arguments passed and pass the correct ones

INTERNAL_ERROR INTERNAL_ERROR Something went wrong with the node itself or overloaded

  • Send a request to a different node
  • Check error.cause.info for more details

heads up

In the case of function call transactions, this query will not wait for **all** receipts generated by this transaction to finish before returning a result. Rather, it will only wait for its return value to finish before returning; _which could be a promise_.

Let’s say a transaction only contains a “function call” action that calls a `transfer()` method like the one below _(written in [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/))_. It will only wait for the “function call” receipt, not necessarily the receipt from the actual transfer of funds to finish before returning a result.

“`rust
pub fn transfer(receiver_id: String) {
Promise::new(receiver_id).transfer(10);
}
“`

However, if we slightly modify the function to have the promise as a return value, then the `tx` status query will wait for this promise to finish _before_ returning results.

“`rust
pub fn transfer_promise(receiver_id: String) -> Promise {
Promise::new(receiver_id).transfer(10)
}
“`

Despite such design, the `tx` endpoint can be used to check whether all receipts have finished.

Instead of looking at the main result `status`, we can check all of the receipts
returned `status` and see if any are `Unknown`. If none of the receipts statuses are unknown, we can be certain that all receipts generated have finished.

In addition, `tx` endpoint does not provide finality guarantees. To make sure that the entire execution is final, it suffices to ensure every `block_hash` in every outcome is `final`.

Here is the exhaustive list of the error variants that can be returned by tx method:

ERROR_TYPE
error.name
ERROR_CAUSE
error.cause.name
Reason Solution
HANDLER_ERROR INVALID_TRANSACTION An error happened during transaction execution
  • See error.cause.info for details
UNKNOWN_TRANSACTION The requested transaction is not available on the node since it might have not been recorded on the chain yet or has been garbage-collected
  • Try again later
  • If the transaction had been submitted more than 5 epochs ago, try to send your request to an archival node
  • Check the transaction hash
TIMEOUT_ERROR It was unable to wait for the transaction status for reasonable time
  • Send a request to a different node
  • Try again later
REQUEST_VALIDATION_ERROR PARSE_ERROR Passed arguments can’t be parsed by JSON RPC server (missing arguments, wrong format, etc.)
  • Check the arguments passed and pass the correct ones
  • Check error.cause.info for more details
INTERNAL_ERROR INTERNAL_ERROR Something went wrong with the node itself or overloaded
  • Try again later
  • Send a request to a different node
  • Check error.cause.info for more details

Transaction Status with Receipts

Queries status of a transaction by hash, returning the final transaction result and details of all receipts.

  • method: EXPERIMENTAL_tx_status
  • params:
    • transaction hash (see NEAR Explorer for a valid transaction hash)
    • sender account id (used to determine which shard to query for transaction)

“`json

What could go wrong?

When API request fails, RPC server returns a structured error response with a limited number of well-defined error variants, so client code can exhaustively handle all the possible error cases. Our JSON-RPC errors follow verror convention for structuring the error response:

{
    "error": {
        "name": <ERROR_TYPE>,
        "cause": {
            "info": {..},
            "name": <ERROR_CAUSE>
        },
        "code": -32000,
        "data": String,
        "message": "Server error",
    },
    "id": "dontcare",
    "jsonrpc": "2.0"
}

Heads up

The fields code, data, and message in the structure above are considered legacy ones and might be deprecated in the future. Please, don’t rely on them.

Here is the exhaustive list of the error variants that can be returned by EXPERIMENTAL_tx_status method:

ERROR_TYPE
error.name
ERROR_CAUSE
error.cause.name
Reason Solution
HANDLER_ERROR INVALID_TRANSACTION An error happened during transaction execution
  • See error.cause.info for details
UNKNOWN_TRANSACTION The requested transaction is not available on the node since it might have not been recorded on the chain yet or has been garbage-collected
  • Try again later
  • If the transaction had been submitted more than 5 epochs ago, try to send your request to an archival node
  • Check the transaction hash
TIMEOUT_ERROR It was unable to wait for the transaction status for reasonable time
  • Send a request to a different node
  • Try again later
REQUEST_VALIDATION_ERROR PARSE_ERROR Passed arguments can’t be parsed by JSON RPC server (missing arguments, wrong format, etc.)
  • Check the arguments passed and pass the correct ones
  • Check error.cause.info for more details
INTERNAL_ERROR INTERNAL_ERROR Something went wrong with the node itself or overloaded
  • Try again later
  • Send a request to a different node
  • Check error.cause.info for more details

Receipt by ID

Fetches a receipt by it’s ID (as is, without a status or execution outcome)

  • method: EXPERIMENTAL_receipt
  • params:

Example:


“`json
{
“jsonrpc”: “2.0”,
“id”: “dontcare”,
“method”: “EXPERIMENTAL_receipt”,
“params”: { “receipt_id”: “2EbembRPJhREPtmHCrGv3Xtdm3xoc5BMVYHm3b2kjvMY” }
}
“`


“`bash
http post https://rpc.testnet.near.org jsonrpc=2.0 method=EXPERIMENTAL_receipt params:='{“receipt_id”: “2EbembRPJhREPtmHCrGv3Xtdm3xoc5BMVYHm3b2kjvMY”}’ id=dontcare
“`


Example response:

“`json
{
“id”: “dontcare”,
“jsonrpc”: “2.0”,
“result”: {
“predecessor_id”: “bohdan.testnet”,
“receipt”: {
“Action”: {
“actions”: [
{
“Transfer”: {
“deposit”: “1000000000000000000000000”
}
}
],
“gas_price”: “103000000”,
“input_data_ids”: [],
“output_data_receivers”: [],
“signer_id”: “bohdan.testnet”,
“signer_public_key”: “ed25519:DhC7rPNTBwWJtmVXs1U1SqJztkn9AWbj6jCmQtkrg3TA”
}
},
“receipt_id”: “2EbembRPJhREPtmHCrGv3Xtdm3xoc5BMVYHm3b2kjvMY”,
“receiver_id”: “frol.testnet”
}
}
“`

ERROR_TYPE
error.name
ERROR_CAUSE

Reason Solution
HANDLER_ERROR UNKNOWN_RECEIPT The receipt with the given receipt_id was never observed on the node
  • Check the provided receipt_id is correct
  • Send a request on a different node
REQUEST_VALIDATION_ERROR PARSE_ERROR Passed arguments can’t be parsed by JSON RPC server (missing arguments, wrong format, etc.)
  • Check the arguments passed and pass the correct ones
  • Check error.cause.info for more details
