# Broadcast Transaction

The code snippet below makes a request to broadcast the signed transaction. The signed transaction is sent to the Validation Cloud backend that will validate it and forward it to the Ethereum network.



```javascript
const STAKING_BROADCAST_TX_URL = `${STAKING_BASE_API_URL}/ethereum/mainnet/broadcast_transaction`;


async function broadcastStakingTransaction(token, signedTx) {
  const jsonBody = JSON.stringify({
    signed_transaction: signedTx,
  });

  const response = await fetch(STAKING_BROADCAST_TX_URL, {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: jsonBody,
  });

  return await response.json();
}
```
