eth_call

Overview

Executes a read-only call on a contract at a specific block.

Movement-Specific Considerations

  • Parallel execution does not affect read-only semantics.
  • Use correct from/to/data fields. Gas is not consumed but gas limits apply to execution.

Parameters

NameTypeRequiredDescription
txobjectYesCall object with from,to,gas,gasPrice,value,data
blockTagstringYeslatest or specific block hex

Returns

Return data as a 0x-hex string.

Code Examples

cURL

curl -X POST https://api-movement-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY/v1 \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"jsonrpc":"2.0",
"method":"eth_call",
"params":[{"to":"0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000","data":"0x"},"latest"],
"id": 1
}'

Ethers.js v6

import { JsonRpcProvider } from 'ethers';
const provider = new JsonRpcProvider('https://api-movement-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY/v1');
const data = await provider.send('eth_call', [{
to: '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000',
data: '0x'
}, 'latest']);
console.log(data);

Web3.js

import Web3 from 'web3';
const web3 = new Web3('https://api-movement-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY/v1');
const data = await web3.eth.call({ to: '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000', data: '0x' }, 'latest');
console.log(data);

viem

import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem';

const movement = {
id: 3073,
name: 'Movement',
nativeCurrency: { name: 'MOVE', symbol: 'MOVE', decimals: 18 },
rpcUrls: { default: { http: ['https://api-movement-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY/v1'] } },
} as const;

const client = createPublicClient({
chain: movement,
transport: http('https://api-movement-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY/v1'),
});

const resp = await client.call({
to: '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000',
data: '0x',
});
console.log(resp.data);

Move Equivalent

Use POST /v1/view for Move view functions.

Common Errors

  • revert with data: decode error using ABI.
  • invalid opcode: verify contract and input.
