Retrieve Transaction Information

Query

query TxInfo($hash: String) {
  transactions(orderBy: timestamp, orderDirection: desc, where: {id: $hash}) {
    id
    timestamp
    block
    swaps(orderBy: timestamp, orderDirection: desc) {
      from
      to
      amountUSD
    }
  }
}

Example

{
  "hash": "0xd856754ded011e5fce3b7c01fce179c34f92fd3bfcd86c5f2b528f1627f45b6e"
}

This query retrieves the transaction details by the given hash, including timestamp, block, and swap information.

Get Swaps Information

query GetSwaps {
  swaps(
    orderBy: timestamp
    orderDirection: desc
    first: 3
  ) {
    id
    to
    from
    amount0In
    amount0Out
    token0 {
      symbol
      totalLiquidity
      tradeVolume
      tradeVolumeUSD
    }
    token1 {
      symbol
