Hyperledger Besu 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 or –rpc-http-port options, update the endpoint. - Except for the examples made on the Ropsten network, the example requests are made against private networks. Depending on network configuration and activity, your example results may be different.

Admin Methods
Note
The ADMIN API methods are not enabled by default for JSON-RPC. 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.

Must be manually executed to add new blocks to the indexes.
Parameters
integer - Block to start generating indexes
integer - Block to stop generating indexes
Returns
result : object - Log bloom index details:
quantity:startBlock- Starting block for the last requested cache generationquantity:endBlock- Ending block for the last requested cache generationquantity:currentBlock- The most recent block that was added to the cacheboolean:indexing-trueif indexing is in progressboolean:trueif the request from this call to generate the cache has been accepted

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
Besu does not implement eth_sendTransaction.
EthSigner provides transaction signing and implements 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 - data - Return value of the executed contract.

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.
Example
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

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 for JSON-RPC. Use the --rpc-http-api
or --rpc-ws-api options to enable the EEA API methods.
eea_sendRawTransaction
Distributes the private transaction, generates the Privacy Marker Transaction 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 or privacyGroupId,
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.
Besu does not implement eea_sendTransaction.
EthSigner provides transaction signing and implements eea_sendTransaction.
Parameters
data - Signed RLP-encoded private transaction. For example:
params: ["0xf869018203e882520894f17f52151ebef6c7334fad080c5704d77216b732881bc16d674ec80000801ba02da1c48b670996dcb1f447ef9ef00b33033c48a4fe938f420bec3e56bfd24071a062e0aa78a81bf0290afbc3a9d8e9a068e6d74caa66c5e0fa8a46deaae96b0833"]
Returns
result : data - 32-byte transaction hash of the Privacy Marker Transaction
Tip
If creating a contract, use priv_getTransactionReceipt to retrieve the contract address after the transaction is finalized.
Example
curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eea_sendRawTransaction","params": ["0xf869018203e882520894f17f52151ebef6c7334fad080c5704d77216b732881bc16d674ec80000801ba02da1c48b670996dcb1f447ef9ef00b33033c48a4fe938f420bec3e56bfd24071a062e0aa78a81bf0290afbc3a9d8e9a068e6d74caa66c5e0fa8a46deaae96b0833"], "id":1}' http://127.0.0.1:8545

Priv Methods
Note
The PRIV API methods are not enabled by default for JSON-RPC. Use the --rpc-http-api
or --rpc-ws-api options to enable the PRIV API methods.
priv_distributeRawTransaction
Distributes a signed, RLP encoded private transaction.
Tip
If you want to sign the Privacy Marker Transaction outside of Besu, use priv_distributeRawTransaction
instead of eea_sendRawTransaction.
Parameters
data - Signed RLP-encoded private transaction. For example:
params: ["0xf869018203e882520894f17f52151ebef6c7334fad080c5704d77216b732881bc16d674ec80000801ba02da1c48b670996dcb1f447ef9ef00b33033c48a4fe938f420bec3e56bfd24071a062e0aa78a81bf0290afbc3a9d8e9a068e6d74caa66c5e0fa8a46deaae96b0833"]
Returns
result : data - 32-byte enclave key. The enclave key is a pointer to the private transaction in Orion.
