How this service works
Estimate the gas a transaction will consume via eth_estimateGas before signing it
Output
Returns the estimated number of gas units the transaction will consume, computed via eth_estimateGas against the live Ethereum RPC — useful for setting gas limits before signing.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Before I sign this transaction, estimate how much gas it will consume — it's a call to contract 0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48 from my wallet 0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045 with calldata 0xa9059cbb000000000000000000000000d8da6bf26964af9d7eed9e03e53415d37aa9604500000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000f4240 and value 0x0.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://skills.onesource.io/api/chain/estimate-gasWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a quick, accurate gas estimate for an Ethereum transaction before signing — especially before sending ETH, calling smart contracts, or performing ERC20 transfers. Prefer it over static gas limits when you want to avoid overpaying or out-of-gas failures.
Side effects
- Transaction would revert on-chain: estimateGas returns an error indicating execution failure
- Invalid hex address or data format: returns 400 validation error
- Missing required 'to' or 'data' fields for contract calls: incomplete response or error
- Network or RPC unavailability: returns 5xx or timeout
- Insufficient balance for 'from' address causes simulation failure
