Blocks​

Get blocks by height​

GET https://rpc.ankr.com/premium-http/aptos/YOUR_ANKR_API_KEY/v1/blocks/by_height/{block_height}

This endpoint allows you to get the transactions in a block and the corresponding block information.

Transactions are limited by max default transactions size. If not all transactions are present, the user will need to query for the rest of the transactions via the get transactions API.

If the block is pruned, it will return a 410

Parameters​

  • block_height (integer; path; required): a block height to look up. Starts at 0.
  • with_transactions (boolean; query): if set to true, includes all transactions in the block. If not provided, no transactions will be retrieved.

Get raw table item​

POST https://rpc.ankr.com/premium-http/aptos/YOUR_ANKR_API_KEY/v1/tables/{table_handle}/raw_item

Get a table item at a specific ledger version from the table identified by {table_handle} in the path and the "key" (RawTableItemRequest) provided in the request body.

The get_raw_table_item requires only a serialized key comparing to the full move type information comparing to the get_table_item api, and can only return the query in the bcs format.

The Aptos nodes prune account state history, via a configurable time window. If the requested ledger version has been pruned, the server responds with a 410.

Parameters​

  • table_handle (string; hex; path; required): a table handle hex encoded 32-byte string.
    Example: 0x88fbd33f54e1126269769780feb24480428179f552e2313fbe571b72e62a1ca1
  • ledger_version (string; uint64; query): a ledger version to get state of account. If not provided, it will be the latest version.
    Example: 32425224034
  • key (string; hex; body; required): all bytes (Vec) data is represented as hex-encoded string prefixed with 0x and fulfilled with two hex digits per byte.
    Unlike the Address type, HexEncodedBytes will not trim any zeros.
    Example: 0x88fbd33f54e1126269769780feb24480428179f552e2313fbe571b72e62a1ca1
