​
Overview

  • Dataset ID: 0122 - Function Results
  • Description: On-chain function call return values versioned by block. Uses contract_id (26 bytes) to support metamorphic contracts; primary key is (contract_id, block_number, call_data).
  • Sample: Hugging Face Sample

​
Parameters

​
chain_id
number
required
Target EVM network. See the Chain enumeration for supported values.

​
Range Filters (mutually exclusive)

​
from_block
number
Starting block number (inclusive) for the query. Use with to_block.
​
to_block
number
Ending block number (inclusive) for the query. Use with from_block.
​
from_timestamp
string
Starting timestamp (ISO-8601). If it falls between blocks, the next block after this timestamp is used. Use with to_timestamp.
​
to_timestamp
string
Ending timestamp (ISO-8601). If it falls between blocks, the last block before this timestamp is used. Use with from_timestamp.
Validation rule:
You must provide either a block range, a time range, or explicit selectors.
Providing more than one option (e.g., both ranges or ranges plus selectors) results in HTTP 400.
Providing none results in HTTP 400.

​
Direct Selectors

​
contract_addresses
string[]
Filter by 20-byte contract addresses (hex string, no 0x prefix). Resolved to matching contract_id incarnations. Up to 256 entries.
​
signature_hashes
string[]
4-byte function selectors (8 hex characters, no 0x prefix). Use to scope calls to specific function signatures.

​
Pagination Controls

​
limit
number
default:"250"
Recommended default 250; maximum 1000 to stay under ~10 MB responses.
​
cursor
string
Opaque pagination cursor returned from a prior call.

​
Response Fields

​
Meta

​
meta
object
Echo of request metadata applied to the response.
​
meta.chain_id
number
EVM chain ID echoed from the request.
​
meta.request_window
object
Block/timestamp bounds derived from the request.
​
meta.filters
object
Filters echoed from the request (contract addresses, signature hashes, latest_only, limit).

​
Data

​
data
object[]
Function result records ordered by (contract_id, block_number DESC) unless latest_only is true. Each row matches the linked dataset; the first 20 bytes of contract_id are the deployed address — there is no separate contract_address field in the payload.
​
data.chain_id
number
Network where the call was executed.
​
data.contract_id
string
Contract incarnation ID (hex string, 26 bytes, no 0x prefix): 20 bytes address + 4 bytes creation block + 2 bytes tx index. Use to join with contracts or for metamorphic disambiguation.
​
data.block_number
number
Snapshot block height when the value was observed.
​
data.block_time
string
Block time for the snapshot (ISO-8601).
​
data.call_data
string
Hex-encoded calldata sent to the contract. For simple getter functions, this is usually just the selector.
​
data.signature_hash
string
4-byte function selector (hex).
​
data.result
string | null
Hex-encoded return payload, or null. Decode using the ABI corresponding to signature_hash.
​
data.timestamp_utc
string
Observation timestamp (ISO-8601), aligned with the snapshot.
​
data._tracing_id
string
Internal lineage identifier (hex string, no 0x prefix) for cross-referencing with lineage endpoints.
​
data._created_at
string
Record creation timestamp (ISO-8601).
​
data._updated_at
string
Record last update timestamp (ISO-8601).

​
Envelope Fields

​
cursor
string | null
Pagination cursor to continue the query.
​
count
number
Number of records returned in this page.

​
Use Cases

  • Refresh oracle or configuration caches with latest per-block values.
  • Detect contract parameter changes by diffing consecutive results.
  • Seed lineage exploration by pairing selectors with their upstream transactions and logs.
