Troubleshooting

When working with Solana transactions and the 0x Swap API, you may encounter some common issues. Below are tips to help diagnose and resolve them:

Issue	Possible Cause	Suggested Fix
Transaction fails or gets dropped	Insufficient SOL for fees, expired blockhash, or network congestion	Ensure your wallet has enough SOL, fetch a fresh blockhash before sending, and retry the transaction
Signature verification errors	Wrong signer, unsigned transaction, or corrupted transaction data	Verify the transaction is signed by the correct keypair and that instructions are built correctly
RPC timeout or errors during `sendTransaction`	Network issues or overloaded RPC node	Try switching to a different RPC endpoint or increase `maxRetries` in transaction sending options
Unexpected API errors or bad responses	Incorrect API key or malformed request payload	Double-check API keys, endpoint URLs, and request parameters

Log your transaction signature and monitor it on a Solana explorer (e.g. Solscan) to track status.
Use connection.getLatestBlockhash() before each transaction to ensure blockhash freshness.
Use the transaction confirmation step to catch failures early.
Enable skipPreflight: false during development to validate transactions before sending.
Check API response error messages carefully; they often indicate what went wrong.

If you continue to experience issues, consider reaching out to the 0x developer support or the Solana developer community for assistance.
