# ledger_entry
[[Source]](https://github.com/xrplf/rippled/blob/master/src/ripple/rpc/handlers/LedgerEntry.cpp "Source")

The `ledger_entry` method returns a single ledger object from the XRP Ledger in its raw format. See [ledger format][] for information on the different types of objects you can retrieve.

## Request Format

This method can retrieve several different types of data. You can select which type of item to retrieve by passing the appropriate parameters, comprised of the general and type-specific fields listed below, and following the standard [request formatting](request-formatting.html). (For example, a WebSocket request always has the `command` field and optionally an `id` field, and a JSON-RPC request uses the `method` and `params` fields.)

{% include '_snippets/no-cli-syntax.md' %}

### General Fields

| Field                   | Type                       | Description           |
|:------------------------|:---------------------------|:----------------------|
| `binary`                | Boolean                    | _(Optional)_ If `true`, return the requested ledger object's contents as a hex string in the XRP Ledger's [binary format](serialization.html). Otherwise, return data in JSON format. The default is `false`. [Updated in: rippled 1.2.0][] |
| `ledger_hash`           | String                     | _(Optional)_ A 20-byte hex string for the ledger version to use. (See [Specifying Ledgers][]) |
| `ledger_index`          | String or Unsigned Integer | _(Optional)_ The [ledger index][] of the ledger to use, or a shortcut string (e.g. "validated" or "closed" or "current") to choose a ledger automatically. (See [Specifying Ledgers][]) |

The `generator` and `ledger` parameters are deprecated and may be removed without further notice.

In addition to the general fields above, you must specify *exactly 1* of the following fields to indicate what type of object to retrieve, along with its sub-fields as appropriate. The valid fields are:

- [`index`](#get-ledger-object-by-id)
- [`account_root`](#get-accountroot-object)
- [`directory`](#get-directorynode-object)
- [`offer`](#get-offer-object)
- [`ripple_state`](#get-ripplestate-object)
- [`check`](#get-check-object)
- [`escrow`](#get-escrow-object)
- [`payment_channel`](#get-paychannel-object)
- [`deposit_preauth`](#get-depositpreauth-object)
- [`ticket`](#get-ticket-object)
- [`nft_page`](#get-nft-page)

**Caution:** If you specify more than 1 of these type-specific fields in a request, the server retrieves results for only 1 of them. It is not defined which one the server chooses, so you should avoid doing this.


### Get Ledger Object by ID

Retrieve any type of ledger object by its unique ID.

| Field   | Type   | Description                                               |
|:--------|:-------|:----------------------------------------------------------|
| `index` | String | The [object ID](ledger-object-ids.html) of a single object to retrieve from the ledger, as a 64-character (256-bit) hexadecimal string. |
