RPC method

trace_transaction on Immutable zkEVM

Not available on SwiftNodes

Measured 2026-10-11 by our weekly probe, which calls trace_transaction through the same Immutable zkEVM endpoint customers use.

What trace_transaction does

Returns the Parity-style trace of one transaction: every internal call, creation and value transfer it caused. It is the usual tool for debugging a transaction after it has been mined.

What to use instead on Immutable zkEVM

Immutable zkEVM did not serve the trace_* namespace in our probe, which is common on OP Stack and zk chains. The debug_* namespace works on Immutable zkEVM: use debug_traceTransaction with the callTracer instead.

Example request

curl -s https://rpc.swiftnodes.io/rpc/immutable-zkevm?key=YOUR_API_KEY \
  -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"trace_transaction","params":["0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"]}'

import { createPublicClient, http } from "viem";

const client = createPublicClient({ transport: http("https://rpc.swiftnodes.io/rpc/immutable-zkevm?key=YOUR_API_KEY") });

// Any JSON-RPC method, typed loosely: trace_transaction on Immutable zkEVM
const result = await client.request({
  method: "trace_transaction",
  params: ["0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"],

Frequently asked questions

Does Immutable zkEVM support trace_transaction?

Not on our Immutable zkEVM upstreams: trace_transaction failed in our weekly method probe (2026-10-11). Immutable zkEVM did not serve the trace_* namespace in our probe, which is common on OP Stack and zk chains. The debug_* namespace works on Immutable zkEVM: use debug_traceTransaction with the callTracer instead.

Immutable zkEVM endpoints, live block height and WebSocket status are on the Immutable zkEVM RPC page.

One key covers every chain we serve, and SwiftNodes has a free tier.
