# JSON-RPC API Methods
!!! attention
All JSON-RPC HTTP examples use the default host and port endpoint `http://127.0.0.1:8545`.
If using the [--rpc-http-host](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#rpc-http-host) or [--rpc-http-port](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#rpc-http-port)
options, update the endpoint.
## Admin Methods
!!! note
The `ADMIN` API methods are not enabled by default. Use the [`--rpc-http-api`](Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#rpc-http-api)
or [`--rpc-ws-api`](Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#rpc-ws-api) options to enable the `ADMIN` API methods.
### admin_addPeer
Adds a node to the list of tracked static nodes. The node attempts to maintain connectivity to tracked static nodes.
If the remote connection goes down, the node attempts to reconnect every 60 seconds.
**Parameters**
`string` : Enode of peer to add
The enode is `enode://<id>@<host:port>` where:
* `<id>` is the node public key excluding the initial 0x.
* `<host:port>` is the host and port the node is listening on for P2P peer discovery.
Specified by the [`--p2p-host`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#p2p-host) and
[`--p2p-port`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#p2p-port) options.
!!! example
If the [`--p2p-host`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#p2p-host) or [`--p2p-port`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#p2p-port) options are not specified and the node public key is `0xc35c3ec90a8a51fd5703594c6303382f3ae6b2ecb9589bab2c04b3794f2bc3fc2631dabb0c08af795787a6c004d8f532230ae6e9925cbbefb0b28b79295d615f`
The enode URL is:
`enode://c35c3ec90a8a51fd5703594c6303382f3ae6b2ecb9589bab2c04b3794f2bc3fc2631dabb0c08af795787a6c004d8f532230ae6e9925cbbefb0b28b79295d615f@127.0.0.1:30303`
**Returns**
`result` : `boolean` - `true` if peer added or `false` if peer already on list of static nodes.
!!! example

## Eth Methods
### eth_syncing
Returns an object with data about the synchronization status, or `false` if not synchronizing.
**Parameters**
None
**Returns**
`result` : *Object|Boolean* - Object with synchronization status data or `false`, when not synchronizing:
* `startingBlock` : *quantity* - Index of the highest block on the blockchain when the network synchronization starts.
If you start with an empty blockchain, the starting block is the beginning of the blockchain (`startingBlock` = 0).
If you import a block file using `pantheon import <block-file>`, the synchronization starts at the head of the blockchain, and the starting block is the next block synchronized. For example, if you imported 1000 blocks, the import would include blocks 0 to 999, so in that case `startingBlock` = 1000.
* `currentBlock` : *quantity* - Index of the latest block (also known as the best block) for the current node. This is the same index that [eth_blockNumber](#eth_blocknumber) returns.
* `highestBlock`: *quantity* - Index of the highest known block in the peer network (that is, the highest block so far discovered among peer nodes). This is the same value as `currentBlock` if the current node has no peers.
!!! example
```bash tab="curl HTTP request"
curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_syncing","params":[],"id":51}' http://127.0.0.1:8545
```
```bash tab="wscat WS request"
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_syncing","params":[],"id":51}
```

{
"jsonrpc" : "2.0",

### eth_coinbase
Returns the client coinbase address. The coinbase address is the account to which mining rewards are paid.

### eth_sendRawTransaction
Sends a [signed transaction](../Using-Pantheon/Transactions.md). A transaction can send ether, deploy a contract, or interact with a contract.
You can interact with contracts using [eth_sendRawTransaction or eth_call](../Using-Pantheon/Transactions.md#eth_call-or-eth_sendrawtransaction).
To avoid exposing your private key, create signed transactions offline and send the signed transaction data using `eth_sendRawTransaction`.
!!!important
Pantheon does not implement [eth_sendTransaction](../JSON-RPC-API/Using-JSON-RPC-API.md#account-management).
**Parameters**
`data` - Signed transaction serialized to hexadecimal format. For example:
`params: ["0xf869018203e882520894f17f52151ebef6c7334fad080c5704d77216b732881bc16d674ec80000801ba02da1c48b670996dcb1f447ef9ef00b33033c48a4fe938f420bec3e56bfd24071a062e0aa78a81bf0290afbc3a9d8e9a068e6d74caa66c5e0fa8a46deaae96b0833"]`
!!! note
[Creating and Sending Transactions](../Using-Pantheon/Transactions.md) includes examples of creating signed transactions using the [web3.js](https://github.com/ethereum/web3.js/) library.
**Returns**
`result` : `data` - 32-byte transaction hash
!!! example
```bash tab="curl HTTP request"
curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_sendRawTransaction","params":["0xf869018203e882520894f17f52151ebef6c7334fad080c5704d77216b732881bc16d674ec80000801ba02da1c48b670996dcb1f447ef9ef00b33033c48a4fe938f420bec3e56bfd24071a062e0aa78a81bf0290afbc3a9d8e9a068e6d74caa66c5e0fa8a46deaae96b0833"],"id":1}' http://127.0.0.1:8545

}
```
### eth_call
Invokes a contract function locally and does not change the state of the blockchain.
You can interact with contracts using [eth_sendRawTransaction or eth_call](../Using-Pantheon/Transactions.md#eth_call-or-eth_sendrawtransaction).
**Parameters**
*OBJECT* - [Transaction call object](JSON-RPC-API-Objects.md#transaction-call-object).
*QUANTITY|TAG* - Integer representing a block number or one of the string tags `latest`, `earliest`, or `pending`, as described in [Block Parameter](../JSON-RPC-API/Using-JSON-RPC-API.md#block-parameter).
**Returns**
`result` (*DATA*) - Return value of the executed contract.
!!! example
```bash tab="curl HTTP request"
curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_call","params":[{"to":"0x69498dd54bd25aa0c886cf1f8b8ae0856d55ff13","value":"0x1"}, "latest"],"id":53}' http://127.0.0.1:8545

```
```json tab="JSON result"
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 53,
"result": "0x"
}
```
### eth_estimateGas
Returns an estimate of how much gas is needed for a transaction to complete. The estimation process does not use
gas and the transaction is not added to the blockchain. The resulting estimate can be greater than the amount of
gas that the transaction actually uses, for various reasons including EVM mechanics and node performance.
The `eth_estimateGas` call does not send a transaction. You must make a subsequent call to
[eth_sendRawTransaction](#eth_sendrawtransaction) to execute the transaction.
**Parameters**
The transaction call object parameters are the same as those for [eth_call](#eth_call), except that in `eth_estimateGas`,
all fields are optional. Setting a gas limit is irrelevant to the estimation process (unlike transactions, in which gas
limits apply).
*OBJECT* - [Transaction call object](JSON-RPC-API-Objects.md#transaction-call-object).
**Returns**
`result` : `quantity` - Amount of gas used.
The following example returns an estimate of 21000 wei (0x5208) for the transaction.
!!! example
```bash tab="curl HTTP request"
curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_estimateGas","params":[{"from":"0xFE3B557E8Fb62b89F4916B721be55cEb828dBd73","to":"0x44Aa93095D6749A706051658B970b941c72c1D53","value":"0x1"}],"id":53}' http://127.0.0.1:8545
```
```bash tab="wscat WS request"

```
```json tab="JSON result"
{
"jsonrpc" : "2.0",

"result" : "0x5208"
}
```
The following example request estimates the cost of deploying a simple storage smart contract to the network. The data field
contains the hash of the compiled contract to be deployed. (You can obtain the compiled contract hash from your IDE;
for example, **Remix > Compile tab > details > WEB3DEPLOY**.) The result is 113355 wei.
**Returns**
