Verifying Contracts

Verify your deployed contracts on the RISE Testnet Explorer so users can view and interact with your contract's source code.

Prerequisites

Contract deployed to RISE (see Deploying)
Contract address from deployment

Verify with Hardhat Ignition

Configure Verification

Add the RISE Explorer configuration to your hardhat.config.ts:

hardhat.config.ts

import hardhatToolboxViemPlugin from "@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox-viem";
import { configVariable, defineConfig } from "hardhat/config";
import "@nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify";

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [hardhatToolboxViemPlugin],
  solidity: {
    version: "0.8.30",
  },
  networks: {
    rise: {
      type: "http",
      url: "https://testnet.riselabs.xyz",
      accounts: [configVariable("RISE_PRIVATE_KEY")],
      chainId: 11155931
    }
  },
  verify: {
    blockscout: {
      networks: {
        rise: "https://explorer.testnet.riselabs.xyz/api"
      }
    }
  }
});

Verify with Ignition

If you deployed with Hardhat Ignition, simply add the --verify flag:

npx hardhat ignition deploy ignition/modules/Counter.ts --network riseTestnet --verify

yarn hardhat ignition deploy ignition/modules/Counter.ts --network riseTestnet --verify

pnpm exec hardhat ignition deploy ignition/modules/Counter.ts --network riseTestnet --verify

bun x hardhat ignition deploy ignition/modules/Counter.ts --network riseTestnet --verify

Since you already deployed the contract, Ignition won't re-deploy it. It will only submit the source code for verification.

Check Verification

You'll see output indicating successful verification with a link to view the contract on the RISE Explorer.

Visit explorer.testnet.riselabs.xyz and search for your contract address to see the verified source code.

Troubleshooting

Already Verified

If you see "Already Verified", the contract source code has already been submitted. No further action needed.

Wrong Constructor Arguments

If verification fails, double-check your constructor arguments match exactly what was used during deployment.

Compiler Version Mismatch

Make sure the Solidity version in your hardhat.config matches the version used in your contract.

Next Steps

Your verified contract is now publicly viewable on the RISE Explorer. Users can:

Read the source code
Interact with contract functions directly through the explorer
View contract events and transactions
