The transaction hash is a blake2b-256 of the SCALE-encoded extrinsic data.

This should be consistent, no matter which middleware API is used, the process is the same to get to that point. For instance, in the polkadot-js API, each extrinsic will have a .hash exposed that does exactly this, i.e. it runs a blake2b-256 over the encoded data as received.

  • But, you see, in the picture I asked, there is no hash

    The above is not the JS API - so you need to, as explained, get the blake2b-256 of the SCALE-encoded extrinsic data. So call the blake2b in your toolset with the encoded extrinsic, that gives you the hash.
