| #### Integration with Web3 The `eth_getTransactionReceipt` method helps developers to: * Build real-time transaction status trackers * Power dashboards that display events and gas usage * Validate smart contract interactions without waiting for confirmations elsewhere * Support dApps and DeFi interfaces that rely on logs for updates * Ensure trustless monitoring of transaction results {% tabs %} {% tab title="Ethers.js" %} ```javascript import { ethers } from "ethers"; const RPC_URL = "https://go.getblock.us/"; const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(RPC_URL); async function Call() { try { const result = await provider.send( "eth_getTransactionReceipt", [ "0x21be7a93a4531a76b1e15d14059582e6b6f9e36cbdc7a85c23667808f4c78b2c" ]); console.log("The result:", result); return result; } catch (error) { console.error("The error:", error); throw error; } } ``` {% endtab %} {% tab title="Viem" %} ```jsx import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem'; import { arbitrum } from 'viem/chains'; // Create Viem client with GetBlock const client = createPublicClient({ chain: arbitrum, transport: http('https://go.getblock.us/'), }); // Using the method through Viem async function Call() { try { // Method-specific Viem implementation const result = await client.request({ method: "eth_getTransactionReceipt", params: ["0x21be7a93a4531a76b1e15d14059582e6b6f9e36cbdc7a85c23667808f4c78b2c"]}); console.log('Result:', result); return result; } catch (error) { console.error('Viem Error:', error); throw error; } } ``` {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
