# eth\_getProof

### **Parameters**

1. `DATA`, 20 Bytes - address of the account.
2. `ARRAY`, 32 Bytes - array of storage-keys which should be proofed and included.&#x20;
3. `QUANTITY|TAG` - integer block number, or the string `"latest"` or `"earliest"`, see the [default block parameter](https://eth.wiki/json-rpc/API#the-default-block-parameter)

### **Returns**

`Object` - A account object:

* `balance`: `QUANTITY` - the balance of the account. See[`eth_getBalance`](https://docs.u2u.xyz/services/rpc/ethereum-api-methods/broken-reference)
* `codeHash`: `DATA`, 32 Bytes - hash of the code of the account. For a simple Account without code it will return `"0xc5d2460186f7233c927e7db2dcc703c0e500b653ca82273b7bfad8045d85a470"`
* `nonce`: `QUANTITY`, - nonce of the account.
* `storageHash`: `DATA`, 32 Bytes - SHA3 of the StorageRoot. All storage will deliver a MerkleProof starting with this rootHash.
* `accountProof`: `ARRAY` - Array of rlp-serialized MerkleTree-Nodes, starting with the stateRoot-Node, following the path of the SHA3 (address) as key.
* `storageProof`: `ARRAY` - Array of storage-entries as requested. Each entry is a object with these properties:
  * `key`: `QUANTITY` - the requested storage key
  * `value`: `QUANTITY` - the storage value
  * `proof`: `ARRAY` - Array of rlp-serialized MerkleTree-Nodes, starting with the storageHash-Node, following the path of the SHA3 (key) as path.
