# `getTransaction`

Returns details for a transaction by hash. This method uses [160 credits](/get-started/pricing/) from your daily balance.

The node keeps a bounded history of recent transactions. Poll this method after [sendTransaction](/reference/stellar/json-rpc-methods/sendtransaction/) to learn whether the transaction succeeded.

## Parameters[​](#parameters "Direct link to Parameters")

- `hash`: (string) _[required]_ - Hex-encoded hash of a transaction previously submitted to the network.
- `xdrFormat`: (string) _[optional]_ - Format for XDR fields in the response. `base64` is the default. `json` returns unpacked JSON. Do not rely on a stable schema for the JSON form, because it changes when the underlying XDR changes.

## Returns[​](#returns "Direct link to Returns")

`result`: (object) - Transaction status and, when the transaction was included, its contents.

- `status`: (string) - `SUCCESS`, `FAILED`, or `NOT_FOUND`.
- `txHash`: (string) - Hex-encoded transaction hash.
- `latestLedger`: (integer) - Sequence number of the latest ledger known to the node when it handled the request.
- `latestLedgerCloseTime`: (string) - Unix timestamp, as a string, of when that ledger closed.
- `oldestLedger`: (integer) - Sequence number of the oldest ledger kept in history.
- `oldestLedgerCloseTime`: (string) - Unix timestamp, as a string, of when that ledger closed.
- `ledger`: (integer) _[optional]_ - Sequence number of the ledger that included the transaction. Present when `status` is `SUCCESS` or `FAILED`.
- `createdAt`: (string) _[optional]_ - Unix timestamp, as a string, of when the transaction was included. Present when `status` is `SUCCESS` or `FAILED`.
- `applicationOrder`: (integer) _[optional]_ - Index of the transaction among transactions in that ledger. Present when `status` is `SUCCESS` or `FAILED`.
- `feeBump`: (boolean) _[optional]_ - `true` when the transaction was fee-bumped. Present when `status` is `SUCCESS` or `FAILED`.
- `envelopeXdr`: (string) _[optional]_ - Base64-encoded `TransactionEnvelope`.
- `resultXdr`: (string) _[optional]_ - Base64-encoded `TransactionResult`. Present when `status` is `SUCCESS` or `FAILED`.
- `resultMetaXdr`: (string) _[optional]_ - Base64-encoded `TransactionMeta`.
- `diagnosticEventsXdr`: (array) _[optional]_ - Base64-encoded diagnostic events. Present when diagnostic events are enabled on the RPC server.
- `events`: (object) _[optional]_ - Events emitted while the transaction was applied.  
  - `transactionEventsXdr`: (array) - Base64-encoded transaction events, such as fees charged or refunded.
  - `contractEventsXdr`: (array) - Nested arrays of base64-encoded contract events, one array per operation.
