# eth\_newPendingTransactionFilter

Creates a filter in the node, to notify when new pending transactions arrive. To check if the state has changed, call [eth\_getFilterChanges](/node-rpc/ethereum-api-endpoints/eth_getfilterchanges.md).

## **Parameters**

None

## Returns

 `QUANTITY` - A filter id.

## Example

*NOTE:* In this example we are using public Ethereum endpoint. Ideally, for your own projects, you should use your own endpoint, which you can generate for free by connecting to your wallet [here](https://www.noderpc.xyz/).

{% tab title="ethers" %}

### Query

*NOTE:* `ethers` used below is a well-known web3 library, check it out [here](https://github.com/ethers-io/ethers.js/).

```javascript
import { ethers } from 'ethers';

const provider =
  new ethers
    .providers
    .JsonRpcProvider("https://www.noderpc.xyz/rpc-mainnet/public")

const fetchLogs = async ()=> {
  const filter = {
    fromBlock: "0xe20360",
    toBlock: "0xe20411",
    address: "0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F",
    topics: [],
  };
  const filterId = await provider.send("eth_newFilter", [filter]);
  console.log(filterId);

}
fetchLogs();

```

### Result

```json
[
    "0x1730ffd159bd7112f91e9542d1c3b2416da483bd60af024f69a5c365fd6fc499"
]
```

{% endtab %}
