# eth\_getTransactionReceipt- Ethereum

This method returns the receipt for a transaction — status (success/reverted), gas used, event logs emitted, and post-EIP-4844 blob-related fields. Receipts are only available after the transaction is mined; polling this method is the standard way to detect confirmation and read emitted events after submission.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type   | Required | Description              |
| --------- | ------ | -------- | ------------------------ |
| `txHash`  | string | Yes      | 32-byte transaction hash |

## Use Cases

* **Post-Submit Confirmation**: Poll after `eth_sendRawTransaction` to detect when a transaction is mined and confirm success/revert
* **Event Log Extraction**: Read `logs` to capture emitted events (ERC-20 Transfer, Uniswap Swap, etc.) for indexers and dApps
* **Actual-Cost Calculation**: Compute the actual transaction cost as `gasUsed × effectiveGasPrice`
* **Contract Deployment Address Discovery**: Read `contractAddress` after a factory deployment to get the new contract's address

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.getblock.io/api-reference/ethereum-eth/eth_gettransactionreceipt-ethereum.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
