eth_getTransactionByHash - Celo

Example code for the eth_getTransactionByHash JSON-RPC method. Complete guide on how to use eth_getTransactionByHash JSON-RPC in GetBlock Web3 documentation.

This method returns information about a transaction by its hash on the Celo network. This is essential for tracking transaction status, debugging, and building transaction explorers. Celo's one-block finality means transactions are confirmed within ~1 second.
