# TRANSACTIONS

We recommend reading the main readme first, to understand the requirements for using the library and how to initiate this in your apps. This guide assumes you've read that.

Manage user transactions via any of these methods:
1. [Get all transactions](#get-all-transactions)
2. [Get transaction fee](#get-transaction-fee)
3. [Resend transaction webhook](#resend-transaction-webhook)
4. [Verify transaction](#verify-transaction)
5. [Verify transaction with reference](#verify-transaction)
6. [Create a transaction refund](#create-a-transaction-refund)
7. [View transaction timeline](#view-transaction-timeline)

## Get all transactions


This describes how to fetch all transactions on your account

```javascript

const Flutterwave = require('flutterwave-node-v3');

const flw = new Flutterwave(process.env.FLW_PUBLIC_KEY, process.env.FLW_SECRET_KEY  );



const fetch_transactions = async () => {

    try {


        const payload = {
            "from": "2020-01-01",
            "to": "2020-05-05"
        }
        const response = await flw.Transaction.fetch(payload)
        console.log(response);
    } catch (error) {
        console.log(error)
    }

}


fetch_transactions();
```
