# eth\_getProof - BSC

Example code for the eth\_getProof JSON RPC method. Сomplete guide on how to use eth\_getProof JSON RPC in GetBlock Web3 documentation.

This method returns the account and storage values of the specified account, including the Merkle proof on the BNB Smart Chain. This is useful for verifying state without trusting the RPC provider.

## Parameters

| Parameter   | Type   | Required | Description              |
| ----------- | ------ | -------- | ------------------------ |
| address     | string | Yes      | Account address          |
| storageKeys | array  | Yes      | Array of storage keys    |
| blockNumber | string | Yes      | Block number or "latest" |
