Getting transaction data

[PradhumnaPancholi]

So, I am doing some prep work for an education tool. And right now, I am trying to sandbox something where I can make sure that the user made a transaction, to the correct contract, method, and if it was a success or not. I am assuming that the following methods will give me sufficient data to get MVP up and running.

transaction.from
transaction.from
transaction.data

This question is more n terms of if there's a better, more optimized way to do so.

to the correct contract,

You need to look at transaction.to

method,

You need to look at the first 4 bytes of tx.data which represents selector (4 bytes means 8 hex chars and initial two '0x' chars: tx.data.slice(0,10))

and if it was a success or not.

You need to look at the transaction receipt

const receipt = await provider.getTransactionReceipt('txhash');
receipt.status // 1 for success and 0 for fail

I think looked into something different or got confused. Does this mean that I don't need etherscan or alchemy? That solves another problem of mine. Thanks for the response.

P.S: Transaction is not made from my app, It will be from platforms like Aave, Compound, etc.
