   Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

   I am not sure if there is a RPC method available to directly get the onion address used so I checked it in localaddresses returned by getnetworkinfo https://developer.bitcoin.org/reference/rpc/getnetworkinfo.html

   It was also mentioned in debug.log file:

   Describe alternatives you’ve considered

   Check the onion address in debug.log or localaddresses returned for getnetworkinfo

   Additional context

   I’m planning to propose an addition to doc/tor.md similar to this in #19961, among other changes. The PR is still in draft status but will be open soon.

   2+You may see your local onion address via bitcoind:
   3+
   4+- in the debug log (grep for "tor:" or "AddLocal")
   5+- in the output of RPC `getnetworkinfo` in the "localaddresses" section
   6+- in the output of the CLI `-netinfo` peer connections dashboard
   7+
   8+You can set the `-debug=tor` config logging option to see more information in the
   9+debug log about your onion configuration.
