# 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) |

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.getblock.io/api-reference/ethereum-eth/debug_storagerangeat-ethereum.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
