[Contract Verification] Verify bytecodehash vs verify contract

[agsola]

When I deploy a contract with deployDeps, the deps code is deployed, but they don't have any contract associated until I use a create or create2.

How can I verify their bytecodehash to allow automatic verification once they are deployed?

@agsola Unfortunately at the moment we don't support bytecode based verification. This means each contract should be verified manually after deployment.
You have several options:

• Verify through Block Explorer UI
• Verify using hardhat

[agsola]

The information about the verification API is so scarce, not even an example @kvrnc .
Is there at least an example of using it? Can we use the "hardhat-zksync-verify" and point to the verify API?
Do we have to implement our own script to send the API calls?

[agsola]

I've been able to manually verify it, but the JSON parser should be improved. A few errors I got with the content it didn't expect:

And finally, the worst part.

After verifying one contract I expected the rest of the contracts with the same bytecode to be automatically verified. Unfortunately, they are not :(
Then, I waited for a new contract to see if only new contracts were verified automatically, but neither are.

So we still have to manually verify every contract even if they share the same bytecode, as we are deploying from a factory with create2 and bytecodehash @kvrnc

[kvrnc]

Can you share the contract you verified that you also expect the other contracts to similarly verify?

[agsola]

Sure @kvrnc
Example of verified contract: 0xf18fff30792a5ee2d09b6856e65dc8d3cf813655
Same new contracts created after verifying that contract that share the same bytecode:
0x191f0ca2cd74868bc5ce08071ef0269892f79f40
0x96c098130f3c8cc022241205153656a23dd0fd36

@bxpana , has there been any change? Why do you keep closing the ticket?

[kvrnc]

Hi @agsola , the contracts are similarly matched. Any further issues you facing?

[agsola]

@bxpana closed the ticket with no further information.
Last time they were not. I've just seen they are now matched. Thank you.

[kvrnc]

All is good 🙏🏻

@agsola apologies for that, I thought it was resolved but glad we got everything figured out now.
