eth_getLogs - Bittensor

Example code for the eth_getLogs JSON-RPC method. Complete guide on how to use eth_getLogs JSON-RPC in GetBlock Web3 documentation.

Returns EVM event logs matching the given filter criteria — by address, topics, and block range. The primary way to read on-chain events from contracts deployed on Subtensor EVM.

Subtensor EVM JSON-RPC method. Call against a GetBlock endpoint configured for the EVM interface (not the Substrate interface). Subtensor EVM uses chain ID 945 (0x3b1). Standard Ethereum tooling — ethers.js, viem, Hardhat, Foundry, MetaMask — works unmodified.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
filter	object	Yes	Filter object with optional fromBlock, toBlock, address, topics, blockHash

SDK Integration

ethers.js

import { ethers } from 'ethers';

const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider('https://go.getblock.io/<ACCESS-TOKEN>/');

// Generic JSON-RPC call (works for any EVM method):
const result = await provider.send('eth_getLogs', [{"fromBlock": "0x599f00", "toBlock": "latest", "address": "0x4a5d8E91234567890abcdef1234567890ABCDEF12", "topics": ["0xddf252ad1be2c89b69c2b068fc378daa952ba7f163c4a11628f55a4df523b3ef"]}]);
console.log(result);

// Most standard methods have typed wrappers:
// provider.getBalance(addr), provider.getBlock(n), provider.getCode(addr), etc.

viem

import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem';

const client = createPublicClient({
    transport: http('https://go.getblock.io/<ACCESS-TOKEN>/')
});

const result = await client.request({
    method: 'eth_getLogs',
    params: [{"fromBlock": "0x599f00", "toBlock": "latest", "address": "0x4a5d8E91234567890abcdef1234567890ABCDEF12", "topics": ["0xddf252ad1be2c89b69c2b068fc378daa952ba7f163c4a11628f55a4df523b3ef"]}]
});
