Traces

Traces keep track of the actions that modify the internal state of the EVM.

Typically, trace_id for traces are unique, unless there are duplicate transactions on the blockchain.

Refer to for more information and examples.

trace_type

The value of the method such as call, create, create2, suicide.

call

call_type

The type of method such as call, delegatecall, staticcall. Learn more here.

call

reward_type

gas_used

The amount of gas consumed, in wei.

5157

subtraces

Number of children traces.

0

trace_address

The address of the trace within the call graph. More detail to come soon.

10

error

Human readable developer error message. Examples: "Out of gas", "Reverted", "Bad instruction", "Bad jump destination".

status

Success status of the trace. Either 1 (success) or 0 (failure). Error messages take precedence over trace status. Note that debug_trace methods may still return status = 1 for error traces.

trace_id

Unique identifier for this trace. Generated by combining the trace_type, transaction_hash and trace_address.

_created_at

Timestamp of the entry creation.

NaT

_updated_at

Timestamp of the entry update.

Additional Info

Trace Address field different from Etherscan/Explorers

The number of traces Allium has indexed for this transaction is 12, whereas if you count the number of traces that Etherscan has on this page, you'll notice that it is 11. Etherscan has chosen to leave out certain types of traces and coupled with how trace addresses are generated, it will result in a different trace address numbering scheme.

In the example above, the trace in the example as indexed by Allium is {0,0,2,0} whereas on Etherscan/Block Explorer it's as follows:
