# eth\_sendRawTransaction - Optimism

Example code for the eth\_sendRawTransaction json-rpc method. Сomplete guide on how to use eth\_sendRawTransaction json-rpc in GetBlock.io Web3 documentation.

This method submits a pre-signed transaction to the network. The transaction must be signed with the sender's private key before being submitted. On Optimism, transactions are processed quickly (\~2 seconds) and benefit from significantly lower fees than Ethereum L1 due to the L2 rollup architecture. The method returns the transaction hash if successful, which can be used to track the transaction status. Note that Optimism transaction costs include both L2 execution costs and L1 data availability costs.

### Parameters

| Parameter             | Type | Description                                          | Required |
| --------------------- | ---- | ---------------------------------------------------- | -------- |
| signedTransactionData | DATA | The signed transaction data as a hexadecimal string. | Yes      |

### Response

A successful response returns the following:

```json
{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": "getblock.io",
    "result": "0x88df016429689c079f3b2f6ad39fa052532c56795b733da78a91ebe6a713944b"
}
```

### Response Parameters

* **`id`**: A unique request identifier, matching the `id` sent in the request body.
* **`jsonrpc`**: Specifies the use of JSON-RPC version 2.0.
* **`result`**: The 32-byte transaction hash of the submitted transaction, or an error if the transaction failed.

### Use Case

The eth\_sendRawTransaction method is commonly used for:

* **Transaction broadcasting**
* **Token transfers**
* **Contract interactions**
* **DApp transactions**
