The `dag_getEvent` command returns an event based on its hash or short ID. The result does not contain transaction details. To obtain transaction details, use [`eth_getTransactionByHash.`](https://docs.u2u.xyz/services/rpc/ethereum-api-methods/eth_gettransactionbyhash)

### Parameters

String - full event ID (hex-encoded 32 bytes) or short event ID.

### Returns

`Object` - An event object, or null when no event was found:

`version`: QUANTITY - the event version.

`epoch`: QUANTITY - the event epoch number.

`seq`: QUANTITY - the event sequence number.

`hash`: DATA, 32 Bytes - full event ID.

`seq`: QUANTITY - the event sequence number.

`frame`: QUANTITY - event's frame number.

`creator`: QUANTITY, - the ID of the event creator (validator).

`prevEpochHash`: DATA, 32 Bytes - the hash of the state of previous epoch

`parents`: Array, - array of event IDs

`gasPowerLeft.shortTerm`: QUANTITY - event's not spent gas power in short-term gas power window.

`gasPowerLeft.longTerm`: QUANTITY - event's not spent gas power in long-term gas power window.

`gasPowerUsed`: QUANTITY - event's spent gas power.

`lamport`: QUANTITY - event's Lamport index.

`creationTime`: QUANTITY - the UnixNano timestamp of creator's local creation time.

`medianTime`: QUANTITY - the UnixNano timestamp of the secure median time.

`extraData`: DATA - the "extra data" field of this event.

`transactionsRoot`: DATA, 32 Bytes - the hash of transactions of the event.
