#### Notification Format:

- `err: <object|null>` - Error if transaction failed, null if transaction
  succeeded.
  [TransactionError definitions](https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/c0c60386544ec9a9ec7119229f37386d9f070523/sdk/src/transaction/error.rs#L13)
- `logs: <array|null>` - Array of log messages the transaction instructions
  output during execution, null if simulation failed before the transaction was
  able to execute (for example due to an invalid blockhash or signature
  verification failure)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "logsNotification",

      "context": {
