Work → Validate Work

Summary

Checks whether a supplied Nano proof of work is valid for a block hash, using an optional difficulty threshold, multiplier, and work version.

Inputs

  • Block Hash (required) — Hash of the block to validate work against.
  • Work (required) — Proof-of-work hex string to validate.
  • Difficulty — Optional work difficulty threshold; the UI says the multiplier overrides this when provided.
  • Multiplier — Multiplier from base difficulty (Nano v20.0+); set to 0 or leave empty to omit it.
  • Work Version — Work version string (Nano v21.0+); leave empty to use the default work_1.
  • Options — Request timeout in milliseconds (default 15000; allowed 1000–600000) and maximum retries for transient RPC failures (default 2; allowed 0–10).

Output shape

A single result from the Nano RPC validate-work request.

The source pack identifies the validateWork call and its parameters but omits function bodies, so the exact returned fields and how difficulty, multiplier, and work version are sent cannot be confirmed.
