Waiting for transaction confirmation using web3.py?

Question

I am sending a transaction using:

sign_txn = web3.eth.account.signTransaction(token_tx, private_key=private_key)
tx_hash = web3.eth.sendRawTransaction(sign_txn.rawTransaction)

and I want to wait for the confirmation of the transaction to continue the work of my script, how can I do this so as not to lose extra time waiting for verification when the transaction is already completed?

Answer 1

I might misunderstand you,

but is web3.eth.get_transaction_receipt() what you are looking for?

if not, please clarify what result you are expecting :)
