# getTransaction

The `getTransaction` RPC method in **CoinVera** allows you to retrieve detailed information about a **confirmed transaction** using its signature. This includes metadata such as **slot**, **block time**, **fees**, **execution status**, **balance changes**, **logs**, and the full **transaction structure**.

***

#### ✅ Common Use Cases

* **Transaction Verification**\
  Confirm that a transaction was processed and check if it succeeded or failed.
* **Transaction History Display**\
  Show detailed transaction info in wallets or explorers.
* **Auditing and Analysis**\
  Analyze executed instructions, accounts touched, and fees paid.
* **Debugging Failed Transactions**\
  Inspect `logMessages` and `err` fields to identify why a transaction failed.
* **Data Indexing**\
  Extract structured transaction data for off-chain storage and querying.

***

#### 🧾 Request Parameters

```ts
[
  transactionSignature: string,  // Required – base-58 transaction signature
  options?: {
    commitment?: string,          // Optional – "finalized", "confirmed", etc.
    encoding?: string,            // Optional – Recommended: "jsonParsed"
    maxSupportedTransactionVersion?: number // Optional – Set to 0 to support legacy + versioned
  }
]
```

* **transactionSignature**: Required. The base-58 encoded transaction ID.
* **commitment**: Optional. Affects finality level (`finalized` recommended for accuracy).
* **encoding**: Optional. Use `"jsonParsed"` for human-readable output; `"json"`, `"base58"`, and `"base64"` are also supported.
* **maxSupportedTransactionVersion**: Optional but **strongly recommended**.\
  Set to `0` to support both **legacy** and **versioned** transactions.

***

#### 📦 Response Structure

Returns `null` if the transaction is not found or hasn’t reached the specified commitment. Otherwise, it returns an object with:

* **slot**: Slot number where the transaction was confirmed.
* **blockTime**: Estimated UNIX timestamp (nullable).
* **meta**: Metadata about execution:
  * `err`: Error info if the transaction failed, or `null` on success.
  * `fee`: Lamports paid.
  * `preBalances` / `postBalances`: Lamport balances of involved accounts.
  * `preTokenBalances` / `postTokenBalances`: SPL token balances (if any).
  * `innerInstructions`: CPI calls and their instructions.
  * `logMessages`: Logs emitted during execution.
  * `loadedAddresses`: Accounts loaded via address lookup tables (for versioned txns).
  * `returnData`: Output returned by the transaction, if applicable.
  * `computeUnitsConsumed`: Compute units used (if available).
* **transaction**:
  * If `jsonParsed` or `json`: Includes `message`, `signatures`, etc.
  * If `base58` or `base64`: Raw encoded transaction.
* **version**: `"legacy"` or a number (e.g., `0` for versioned txns); `undefined` if not requested properly.

#### 💡 Developer Tips

* **Always Set `maxSupportedTransactionVersion: 0`**\
  To handle both legacy and versioned transactions reliably.
* **Use `jsonParsed` When Possible**\
  Easier to inspect instructions, accounts, and tokens—especially for wallet or dApp UIs.
* **Expect Large Payloads**\
  Complex transactions with many instructions/logs can return very large JSON objects.
* **Check for `null` Values**\
  The method will return `null` for:
  * Incorrect or unknown signatures
  * Unconfirmed transactions (depending on commitment)
  * Incompatible transaction versions (if not configured)
* **Parsing Limitations**\
  If a custom program is not recognized, `jsonParsed` may fallback to base64 format for that instruction.
* **Provider Differences**\
  While the RPC spec is consistent, **CoinVera** may offer enhanced transaction decoding or additional metadata compared to other providers.

***

The `getTransaction` method is critical for building detailed transaction explorers, debugging tools, and analytics platforms on Solana. By using `jsonParsed` and `maxSupportedTransactionVersion: 0`, you can ensure broad compatibility and full visibility into on-chain activity through **CoinVera**.
