# eth\_syncing

Returns information about the sync status of the node

#### **Parameters:**

None

#### **Returns:**

**Boolean (FALSE)** - if the node isn't syncing (which means it has fully synced)

**Object** - an object with sync status data if the node is syncing

* **startingBlock: QUANTITY** - The block at which the import started (will only be reset, after the sync reached his head)
* **currentBlock: QUANTITY** - The current block, same as eth\_blockNumber
* **highestBlock: QUANTITY** - The estimated highest block

#### Example:
