eth_getBlockReceipts
Polygon / https://triport.io/polygon
Minimum tier: Free
Last updated:
eth_getBlockReceipts returns the receipts for all transactions in a given
block as a single array. It is the bulk equivalent of calling
eth_getTransactionReceipt once per
transaction — but in a single round trip, which is dramatically faster when you
need to index or analyze a whole block (gas usage, event logs, contract
creations, status flags).
Use it when you are building an indexer, analytics pipeline, or block explorer
that processes every transaction in a block. For pulling only events that match
a filter (by address/topic), prefer
eth_getLogs instead; for a single transaction's outcome,
use eth_getTransactionReceipt.
Gotchas to plan for:
- Payload-heavy. A typical Polygon block carries 50–150 transactions, so a single response is commonly 50–300 KB. Make sure your HTTP client and any intermediate proxy allow response bodies of that size and set generous read timeouts.
- Block cadence. Polygon block time is ~2.1 s, so
latestadvances roughly every two seconds. When polling the chain tip, align your interval to that cadence rather than hammering the endpoint. - Still cheaper than N calls. Even though the response is large, one
eth_getBlockReceiptscall avoids the per-transaction network round-trips ofN×eth_getTransactionReceipt, which is the main reason to use it for indexing.
