| error                  | null\|object | Error object when the call fails, otherwise null             |
| id                     | string       | Request identifier matching the request                      |
| result.size            | numeric      | Serialized transaction size in bytes                         |
| result.fee             | numeric      | Fee paid, in DOGE                                            |
| result.time            | numeric      | Time the transaction entered the mempool                     |
| result.height          | numeric      | Chain height when the transaction entered the mempool        |
| result.descendantcount | numeric      | Number of in-mempool descendants, including this transaction |
