Simulates/validates a contract interaction. This is useful for retrieving return data and revert reasons of contract write functions.
This function does not require gas to execute and does not change the state of the blockchain. It is almost identical to readContract
, but also supports contract write functions.
Internally, uses a Public Client to call the call
action with ABI-encoded data
.

Verify that typed data was signed by the provided address.
Whether or not the signature is valid. VerifyTypedDataReturnType
Waits for the Transaction to be included on a Block (one confirmation), and then returns the Transaction Receipt. If the Transaction reverts, then the action will throw an error.
eth_getTransactionReceipt
on each block until it has been processed.eth_getBlockByNumber
and extracts the transactionseth_getTransactionReceipt
.The waitForTransactionReceipt
action additionally supports Replacement detection (e.g. sped up Transactions).
Transactions can be replaced when a user modifies their transaction in their wallet (to speed up or cancel). Transactions are replaced when they are sent from the same nonce.
There are 3 types of Transaction Replacement reasons:
repriced
: The gas price has been modified (e.g. different maxFeePerGas
)cancelled
: The Transaction has been cancelled (e.g. value === 0n
)replaced
: The Transaction has been replaced (e.g. different value
or data
)The transaction receipt. WaitForTransactionReceiptReturnType
