What Is the Cost Associated with a “Request and Response” Transaction?

The cost is primarily the gas fee required to execute the transaction on the blockchain, which covers the computation and storage. This includes the gas for the initial request and the gas for the oracle network's response transaction that writes the data on-chain.

This cost can fluctuate significantly based on network congestion and the complexity of the oracle's validation process.
