+
+A trace is a set of messages and transactions produced by a single external message.
+
+Each _i-th_ transaction in the trace is triggered by a message sent during the action phase of some earlier _j-th_ transaction, where _j \< i_.
+
+
+
+
+
+All messages and transactions in the trace are ordered by their [logical time (lt)](/foundations/whitepapers/tblkch#1-4-1-logical-time), reflecting their logical dependencies. The diagram shows transactions on independent accounts, each triggered by an incoming message, with `lt` values indicated for every message.
+
+
+
+
+
+## Using traces in Tonviewer
+
+In [Tonviewer](https://tonviewer.com/), traces are visualized as [directed acyclic graphs (DAGs)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directed_acyclic_graph), where _transactions are nodes_ and _messages are edges_, showing the full sequence of account state changes triggered by a single external message.
+
+### Tracing operations
+
+Traces show the execution flow of an operation, such as a Jetton or NFT transfer, illustrating how transactions and messages connect to produce the final result. Each trace is an automatically generated tree of related transactions derived from message propagation.
+
+**Example**
+
+The NFT transfer illustrates a single operation that consists of **three transactions**, each triggered by messages. To learn how to read traces, follow [this article](/ecosystem/explorers/tonviewer#steps-to-analyze-an-operation).
+
+
+
+## Access using API
+
+To fetch transaction data, use the [`GET /traces`](/ecosystem/api/toncenter/v3/actions-and-traces/list-actions-by-filters-tx-msg-trace) endpoint.
+This method returns all transactions related to a given operation without requiring individual parsing.
