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
or --rpc-ws-api
options to enable the ADMIN
API methods.
admin_addPeer
Adds a static node.
!!! caution If connections are timing out, ensure the node ID in the enode URL is correct.
Parameters
string
: Enode URL of peer to add
Returns
result
: boolean
- true
if peer added or false
if peer already a static node.
!!! example

admin_nodeInfo
Returns networking information about the node. The information includes general information about the node
and specific information from each running Ethereum sub-protocol (for example, eth
).

If the node is running locally, the host of the enode
and listenAddr
are displayed as [::]

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 casestartingBlock
= 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 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 ascurrentBlock
if the current node has no peers.

eth_sendRawTransaction
Sends a signed transaction. A transaction can send ether, deploy a contract, or interact with a contract.
You can interact with contracts using eth_sendRawTransaction or eth_call.
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.
Parameters
data
- Signed transaction serialized to hexadecimal format. For example:
params: ["0xf869018203e882520894f17f52151ebef6c7334fad080c5704d77216b732881bc16d674ec80000801ba02da1c48b670996dcb1f447ef9ef00b33033c48a4fe938f420bec3e56bfd24071a062e0aa78a81bf0290afbc3a9d8e9a068e6d74caa66c5e0fa8a46deaae96b0833"]
!!! note Creating and Sending Transactions includes examples of creating signed transactions using the web3.js library.
Returns
result
: data
- 32-byte transaction hash

```
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.
Parameters
OBJECT - 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.
Returns
result

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 to execute the transaction.
Parameters
The transaction call object parameters are the same as those for 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.
Returns
result
: quantity
- Amount of gas used.
The following example returns an estimate of 21000 wei (0x5208) for the transaction.

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.

EEA Methods
!!! note
The EEA
API methods are not enabled by default. Use the --rpc-http-api
or --rpc-ws-api
options to enable the EEA
API methods.
eea_sendRawTransaction
Creates a private transaction from a signed transaction, generates the transaction hash and submits it to the transaction pool, and returns the transaction hash of the Privacy Marker Transaction.
The signed transaction passed as an input parameter includes the privateFrom
, privateFor
, and restriction
fields.
To avoid exposing your private key, create signed transactions offline and send the signed transaction
data using eea_sendRawTransaction
.
!!! important For production systems requiring private transactions, we recommend using a network with a consensus mechanism supporting transaction finality. For example, IBFT 2.0.
Parameters
data
- Signed RLP-encoded private transaction. For example:
params: ["0xf869018203e882520894f17f52151ebef6c7334fad080c5704d77216b732881bc16d674ec80000801ba02da1c48b670996dcb1f447ef9ef00b33033c48a4fe938f420bec3e56bfd24071a062e0aa78a81bf0290afbc3a9d8e9a068e6d74caa66c5e0fa8a46deaae96b0833"]
Returns
result
: data
- 32-byte transaction hash
!!! tip If creating a contract, use eea_getTransactionReceipt to retrieve the contract address after the transaction is finalized.
!!! example
bash tab="curl HTTP request" curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eea_sendRawTransaction","params": ["0xf869018203e882520894f17f52151ebef6c7334fad080c5704d77216b732881bc16d674ec80000801ba02da1c48b670996dcb1f447ef9ef00b33033c48a4fe938f420bec3e56bfd24071a062e0aa78a81bf0290afbc3a9d8e9a068e6d74caa66c5e0fa8a46deaae96b0833"], "id":1}' http://127.0.0.1:8545
