01What
Shows an account's transaction history — every payment, offer, and settings change it has sent or received, newest first.
02Why you'd use it
It is the ledger's version of a bank statement. Use it to confirm a payment arrived, audit activity, or debug what a script actually did.
03How
- 1Enter the Account Address.
- 2Set Limit to how many transactions you want (10 is a good start).
- 3Turn on Oldest First only if you want history from the beginning.
- 4Run it and check each entry's meta.TransactionResult — tesSUCCESS means it really happened.
Watch out
- A transaction appearing in the list does not mean it succeeded — check the result code. tec* codes mean it failed but still burned the fee.
- XRP amounts in raw transactions are in drops.
- For payments, trust delivered_amount in the metadata, not the Amount field — partial payments can deliver less than the stated amount.
For example
A customer says they paid you an hour ago. You pull your account history, find their transaction, see tesSUCCESS and a delivered_amount of 25000000 drops — 25 XRP arrived.
