# debug\_storageRangeAt - Ethereum

This method returns a range of storage slots from a specific contract at a specific block. Given a contract address and starting storage key hash, returns the next N slots along with a continuation cursor. Used for exhaustive storage-layout inspection during contract analysis, forensics, and archival research.

| ---------------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `jsonrpc`        | string | JSON-RPC protocol version ("2.0")                                        |
| `id`             | string | Request identifier matching the request                                  |
| `result.storage` | object | Map of storage-key-hash → `{key, value}` entries                         |
| `result.nextKey` | string | Continuation cursor for the next page (null when the range is exhausted) |

## Use Cases

* **Exhaustive Storage Inspection**: Enumerate all storage slots of a contract for reverse-engineering unknown storage layouts
* **Forensic Analysis**: Snapshot a contract's complete storage at the time of an exploit for post-mortem
* **Mapping Enumeration**: Iterate through all keys of a Solidity `mapping` when the key set isn't known in advance

## Error Handling

| Error Code | Message          | Description                                                                             |
| ---------- | ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| -32601     | Method not found | `debug` module not enabled — Dedicated Node tier required                               |
| -32602     | Invalid params   | Block hash, address, or start key is malformed                                          |
| -32603     | Internal error   | Node failed to enumerate storage (often indicates state pruning at the requested block) |
