Request

1. BLOCK HASH - A string representing the hash (32 bytes) of a block.

2. SHOW TRANSACTION DETAILS FLAG - A boolean parameter. When true, returns the full transaction information of each transaction hash included within the block. When false, only returns transaction hashes within the block.

Response

Result Fields

BLOCK - A block object, or null when no block was found with the hash specified.

Within the block object, the following block information are available.

1. difficulty: integer of the difficulty for this block.

2. extraData: the "extra data" field of this block.

3. gasLimit: the maximum gas allowed in this block.

4. gasUsed: the total used gas by all transactions in this block.

5. hash: 32 Bytes - hash of the block. Null when the returned block is the pending block.

6. logsBloom: 256 Bytes - the bloom filter for the logs of the block. Null when the returned block is the pending block.

7. miner: 20 Bytes - the address of the beneficiary to whom the mining rewards were given.

8. mixHash -

9. nonce: 8 Bytes - hash of the generated proof-of-work. Null when the returned block is the pending block.

10. number: the block number. Null when the returned block is the pending block.

11. parentHash: 32 Bytes - hash of the parent block.

12. receiptsRoot: 32 Bytes - the root of the receipts trie of the block.

13. sha3Uncles: 32 Bytes - SHA3 of the uncles data in the block.

14. size: integer the size of this block in bytes.

15. stateRoot: 32 Bytes - the root of the final state trie of the block.

16. timestamp: the unix timestamp for when the block was collated.

17. totalDifficulty: integer of the total difficulty of the chain until this block.

18. transactions: Array - Array of transaction objects, or 32 Bytes transaction hashes depending on the last given parameter.

19. transactionsRoot: 32 Bytes - the root of the transaction trie of the block.

20. uncles: an Array of uncle hashes.
