JSON-RPC API Methods

This page presents the full list of JSON-RPC methods. Each of them is in one of three states:

	— done		— in progress		— not supported

JSON-RPC Methods According to Ethereum Client API

Num	Method	Description	Status
1	eth_getBlockByHash	Returns information about a block by hash
2	eth_getBlockByNumber	Returns information about a block by number
3	eth_getBlockTransactionCountByHash	Returns the number of transactions in a block from a block matching the given block hash
4	eth_getBlockTransactionCountByNumber	Returns the number of transactions in a block matching the given block number
5	eth_getUncleCountByBlockHash	Returns the number of uncles in a block from a block matching the given block hash
6	eth_getUncleCountByBlockNumber	Returns the number of uncles in a block from a block matching the given block number
7	eth_protocolVersion	Returns the current Ethereum protocol version
8	eth_chainId	Returns the chain ID of the current network
9	eth_syncing	Returns an object with data about the sync status or false-copy
10	eth_coinbase	Returns the client Coinbase address
11	eth_accounts	Returns a list of addresses owned by client
12	eth_blockNumber	Returns the number of most recent block.
13	eth_call	Executes a new message call immediately without creating a transaction on the blockchain
14	eth_estimateGas	Generates and returns an estimate of how much gas is necessary to allow the transaction to complete.
15	eth_gasPrice	Returns the current price per gas in wei
16	eth_feeHistory	Returns fee history
17	eth_newFilter	Creates a filter object, based on filter options, to notify when the state changes (logs)
18	eth_newBlockFilter	Creates a filter in the node, to notify when a new block arrives
19	eth_newPendingTransactionFilter	Creates a filter in the node, to notify when new pending transactions arrive
20	eth_uninstallFilter	Uninstalls a filter with given id
21	eth_getFilterChanges	Polling method for a filter, which returns an array of logs which occurred since last poll
22	eth_getFilterLogs	Returns an array of all logs matching filter with given id. Can compute the same results with an eth_getLogs call
23	eth_getLogs	Anytime a transaction is mined, we can see event logs for that transaction by making a request to eth_getLogs and then take actions based off those results
24	eth_mining	Returns whether the client is actively mining new blocks
25	eth_hashrate	Returns the number of hashes per second that the node is mining with
26	eth_getWork	Returns the hash of the current block, the seedHash, and the boundary condition to be met ("target")
27	eth_submitWork	Used for submitting a Proof-of-Work solution
28	eth_submitHashrate	Used for submitting mining hashrate
29	eth_sign	Returns an EIP-191 signature over the provided data.
30	eth_signTransaction	Signs and submits a transaction
31	eth_getBalance	Returns the balance of the account of given address
32	eth_getStorageAt	Returns the value from a storage position at a given address
33	eth_getTransactionCount	Returns the number of transactions sent from an address
34	eth_getCode	Returns code at a given address
35	eth_sendTransaction	Signs and submits a transaction
36	eth_sendRawTransaction	Submits a raw transaction
37	eth_getTransactionByHash	Returns the information about a transaction requested by transaction hash
38	eth_getTransactionByBlockHashAndIndex	Returns information about a transaction by block hash and transaction index position
39	eth_getTransactionByBlockNumberAndIndex	Returns information about a transaction by block number and transaction index position
40	eth_getTransactionReceipt	Returns the receipt of a transaction by transaction hash

Methods eth_getTransactionByHash, eth_getTransactionByBlockHashAndIndex, eth_getTransactionByBlockNumberAndIndex, eth_getBlockByHash and eth_getBlockByNumber also return the chainId property in addition to the specified output.
