Get a Block Transaction

Retrieves a Transaction included in a block that is not returned in a BlockResponse.

Request Body

REQUIRED

network_identifier

object

REQUIRED

The network_identifier specifies which network a particular object is associated with.

blockchain

string

REQUIRED

Blockchain name

network

string

REQUIRED

If a blockchain has a specific chain-id or network identifier, it should go in this field. It is up to the client to determine which network-specific identifier is mainnet or testnet.

sub_network_identifier

object

In blockchains with sharded state, the SubNetworkIdentifier is required to query some object on a specific shard. This identifier is optional for all non-sharded blockchains.

network

string

REQUIRED

Network name

metadata

object

Meta data from subnetwork identifier

producer

string

REQUIRED

producer

block_identifier

object

REQUIRED

When fetching data by BlockIdentifier, it may be possible to only specify the index or hash. If neither property is specified, it is assumed that the client is making a request at the current block.

transaction_identifier

object

REQUIRED

The transaction_identifier uniquely identifies a transaction in a particular network and block or in the mempool.

hash

string

REQUIRED

Any transactions that are attributable only to a block (ex: a block event) should use the hash of the block as the identifier.

Responses

200

Success

Schema

OPTIONAL

transaction

object

Transactions contain an array of Operations that are attributable to the same TransactionIdentifier.

transaction_identifier

object

The transaction_identifier uniquely identifies a transaction in a particular network and block or in the mempool.

hash

string

Any transactions that are attributable only to a block (ex: a block event) should use the hash of the block as the identifier.

operations

object[]

List of operations

operation_identifier

object

The operation_identifier uniquely identifies an operation within a transaction.

index

integer

The operation index is used to ensure each operation has a unique identifier within a transaction. This index is only relative to the transaction and NOT GLOBAL. The operations in each transaction should start from index 0. To clarify, there may not be any notion of an operation index in the blockchain being described.

network_index

integer

OPTIONAL

Some blockchains specify an operation index that is essential for client use. For example, Bitcoin uses a network_index to identify which UTXO was used in a transaction. network_index should not be populated if there is no notion of an operation index in a blockchain (typically most account-based blockchains).

related_operations

object[]

OPTIONAL

Restrict referenced related_operations to identifier indexes < the current operation_identifier.index. This ensures there exists a clear DAG-structure of relations. Since operations are one-sided, one could imagine relating operations in a single transfer or linking operations in a call tree.

index

integer

Describes the index of related operation.

network_index

integer

OPTIONAL

Some blockchains specify an operation index that is essential for client use. network_index should not be populated if there is no notion of an operation index in a blockchain (typically most account-based blockchains).

type

string

The network-specific type of the operation. Ensure that any type that can be returned here is also specified in the NetworkStatus. This can be very useful to downstream consumers that parse all block data.

status

string

OPTIONAL

The network-specific status of the operation. Status is not defined on the transaction object because blockchains with smart contracts may have transactions that partially apply. Blockchains with atomic transactions (all operations succeed or all operations fail) will have the same status for each operation.

account

object

OPTIONAL

The account_identifier uniquely identifies an account within a network. All fields in the account_identifier are utilized to determine this uniqueness (including the metadata field, if populated).

address

string

The address may be a cryptographic public key (or some encoding of it) or a provided username.

sub_account

object

OPTIONAL

An account may have state specific to a contract address (ERC-20 token) and/or a stake (delegated balance). The sub_account_identifier should specify which state (if applicable) an account instantiation refers to.

address

string

The address may be a cryptographic public key (or some encoding of it) or a provided username.

metadata

object

OPTIONAL

If the SubAccount address is not sufficient to uniquely specify a SubAccount, any other identifying information can be stored here. It is important to note that two SubAccounts with identical addresses but differing metadata will not be considered equal by clients.

metadata

object

OPTIONAL

Blockchains that utilize a username model (where the address is not a derivative of a cryptographic public key) should specify the public key(s) owned by the address in metadata.

amount

object

OPTIONAL

Amount is some Value of a Currency. It is considered invalid to specify a Value without a Currency.

value

string

Value of the transaction in atomic units represented as an arbitrary-sized signed integer. For example, 1 BTC would be represented by a value of 100000000.

currency

object

Currency is composed of a canonical Symbol and Decimals. This Decimals value is used to convert an Amount.Value from atomic units (Satoshis) to standard units (Bitcoins).

symbol

string

Canonical symbol associated with a currency.

decimals

integer

Number of decimal places in the standard unit representation of the amount. For example, BTC has 8 decimals. Note that it is not possible to represent the value of some currency in atomic units that is not base 10.

metadata

object

OPTIONAL

Any additional information related to the currency itself. For example, it would be useful to populate this object with the contract address of an ERC-20 token.

metadata

object

OPTIONAL

coin_change

object

OPTIONAL

CoinChange is used to represent a change in state of a some coin identified by a coin_identifier. This object is part of the Operation model and must be populated for UTXO-based blockchains. Coincidentally, this abstraction of UTXOs allows for supporting both account-based transfers and UTXO-based transfers on the same blockchain (when a transfer is account-based, don't populate this model).

coin_identifier

object

CoinIdentifier uniquely identifies a Coin.

identifier

string

Identifier should be populated with a globally unique identifier of a Coin. In Bitcoin, this identifier would be transaction_hash:index.

coin_action

string

Possible values: [coin_created, coin_spent]

CoinActions are different state changes that a Coin can undergo. When a Coin is created, it is coin_created. When a Coin is spent, it is coin_spent. It is assumed that a single Coin cannot be created or spent more than once.

metadata

object

OPTIONAL

Operations Meta Data

metadata

object

OPTIONAL

Transactions that are related to other transactions (like a cross-shard transaction) should include the tranaction_identifier of these transactions in the metadata.

memo

string

OPTIONAL

STX token transfer memo.

size

integer

OPTIONAL

The Size

lockTime

integer

OPTIONAL

The locktime

400

Error

Schema

OPTIONAL

code

integer

Code is a network-specific error code. If desired, this code can be equivalent to an HTTP status code.

message

string

Message is a network-specific error message. The message MUST NOT change for a given code. In particular, this means that any contextual information should be included in the details field.

retriable

boolean

An error is retriable if the same request may succeed if submitted again.

details

object

OPTIONAL

Often times it is useful to return context specific to the request that caused the error (i.e. a sample of the stack trace or impacted account) in addition to the standard error message.

address

string

OPTIONAL

error

string

OPTIONAL
