Which is the accurate method to get the block number to which a transaction is written after executing a transaction?
The resposne of push_transaction API is not accurate
Can anyone help me with this?
You can access it from the command line using:
cleos get transaction TRANSACTION_ID | jq '.block_num'

I need the block number immediately after the transaction is executed to store it in my database. – Muhzin Feb 5 at 10:51

Can you explain in more detail in your question exactly what you want/need? – Phillip Hamnett - EOS42♦ Feb 5 at 11:01

I doing server-side transaction signing and push the transaction using push_transaction API. I have to store the returned Block number immediately in my DB for further reference. The problem is, the instantly returned block number is not accurate. I need the correct block number to which the transaction is written after pushing it – Muhzin Feb 6 at 5:23
Use EOSJS
the "result" contains several pieces of information including the transaction id and the corresponding block number.
const result = await api.transact({...})
