Contract Verification
Overview

Smart Contract Verification

Smart contract verification involves submitting the source code of your smart contracts to ensure that the deployed bytecode on the blockchain matches the source code provided. Verification is essential for Tenderly’s development tooling to work properly.

Tenderly supports multiple verification methods.


Infrastructure compatibility

Tenderly exposes an Etherscan-compliant verification API able to verify contracts that are deployed on:

Verification visibility modes

You can verify contracts in two modes of visibility:

  • Privately on public networks (mainnets and testnets). Your contracts will be verified only in your Tenderly project and organization.
  • Publicly on public networks (mainnets and testnets). This is the default verification method.

The importance of smart contract verification

Having your contracts verified unlocks powerful Tenderly tools designed to streamline your development process. If your smart contract is not verified either privately or publicly, your use of Tenderly tooling will be limited.

  • Decoded transactions: Gain insights into transactions with decoded call traces, events, state changes, and gas usage.
  • Debugging: Use decoded information for efficient debugging and transaction analysis, making it easier to identify and fix issues.
  • Optimization opportunities: Access precise gas usage profiling to identify and implement optimizations, reducing costs and improving performance.
  • Enhanced collaboration: Share verified contracts with team members and auditors securely to facilitate collaboration and speed up auditing processes.
