# trace_transaction

# `trace_transaction`

Returns all traces for a given transaction in the OpenEthereum/Parity trace format. Traces include internal calls that are not visible in a standard transaction receipt.

## Parameters

-   `transactionHash`: _[required]_ 32-byte transaction hash.

## Returns

Array of trace objects. Each trace includes an `action` object (`callType`, `from`, `to`, `gas`, `input`, `value`) and a `result` object (`gasUsed`, `output`).

## Example

### Request

```bash
curl https://rpc.linea.build \
