eth_getBlockReceipts - Astar RPC Method
Return every transaction receipt in a block on Astar. Useful for indexers, analytics pipelines, and event backfills across cross-chain DeFi, multi-VM smart contracts, and XCM-enabled interoperability with Ethereum and Cosmos.
Returns all transaction receipts for a block on Astar. This is more efficient than calling eth_getTransactionReceipt once per transaction when you already know the target block.
Why Astar? Build on Polkadot's leading dApp hub supporting EVM, WASM, and upcoming PolkaVM environments with EVM + WASM + PolkaVM support, Build2Earn developer rewards, dApp Staking, and Soneium cross-layer integration.
When to Use This Method
eth_getBlockReceipts is useful for multi-chain dApp developers, DeFi builders, and teams leveraging Polkadot + Ethereum ecosystems:
- Indexer Backfills — Pull every receipt in a block with one request instead of looping over transaction hashes
- Event Collection — Scan all logs emitted by a block when building analytics or data pipelines
- Settlement Auditing — Verify every transaction outcome in a target block for cross-chain DeFi, multi-VM smart contracts, and XCM-enabled interoperability with Ethereum and Cosmos
- Operational Debugging — Compare receipt-level gas usage, status, and logs across multiple transactions at once
Request Parameters
Block number, block tag such as latest, or 32-byte block hash
Response Body
Array of receipt objects for the block, or null if the block is not found
Transaction hash
0x1 on success, 0x0 on failure
Gas used by this transaction
Total gas used in the block up to this transaction
Logs emitted by the transaction
Created contract address for deployment transactions
Effective gas price paid by the sender
