# eth\_createAccessList

Returns an [EIP-2930](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-2930) access list that you can include in a transaction. You can use this method to optimize your smart contract interactions.

This method will use `20` [Compute Units](https://docs.validationcloud.io/v1/about/billing).

***

## **Parameters**

1. `Object` - The transaction call object

`from` - \[optional] String of the address the transaction is sent from.

`to` - String of the address the transaction is directed to.

`gas` - \[optional] Integer of the gas provided for the transaction execution encoded as a hexadecimal.

`gasprice` - \[optional] Integer of the gasPrice used for each paid gas encoded as a hexadecimal.

`value` - \[optional] Integer of the value sent with this transaction encoded as a hexadecimal.

`data` - \[optional] String of the hash of the method signature and encoded parameters. For more information, see the [Contract ABI description in the Solidity documentation](https://docs.soliditylang.org/en/latest/abi-spec.html).

2. `QUANTITY | TAG` - integer block number, or the string `"latest"`, `"earliest"` or `"pending"`, see the [default block parameter](https://ethereum.org/en/developers/docs/apis/json-rpc/#default-block-parameter)

## Returns

`accessList`: A list of objects with the following fields:

* `address`: Addresses to be accessed by the transaction.
* `storageKeys`: Storage keys to be accessed by the transaction.
* `gasUsed`: A hexadecimal string representing the approximate gas cost for the transaction if the access list is included.
