# Blockscout Block Internal Transactions

> Blockscout Block Internal Transactions is a paid API for AI agents from api.blockscout.com, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

Retrieves all internal transactions within a specific block on a given blockchain network via Blockscout's multichain explorer API

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability blockscout-block-internal-transactions-a0b37833
```

Example prompt: Can you pull all the internal transactions from block 19800000 on Ethereum mainnet (chain_id 1) using Blockscout, and show me any that failed or involved contract creation?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to inspect the internal call tree or sub-transactions within a specific block across any of Blockscout's supported chains. It is ideal for auditing smart contract interactions, tracing DeFi protocol flows, identifying contract deployments, or debugging failed internal calls — especially when you need multichain support from a single API with per-block granularity rather than per-transaction granularity.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent block hash/number returns empty items or 404
- Unsupported chain_id returns an error response
- Malformed block_hash_or_number_param causes a bad request error
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 or 429
- Block exists but has no internal transactions returns an empty items array
- Invalid filter parameters (call_type, internal_type) may return no results or an error

## How this service works

Explore crypto activities with Blockscout's multichain search. Find transactions, addresses, tokens, and dapps across top blockchain networks — your go-to explorer for cross-chain blockchain data

## Output

Returns a paginated list of internal transactions within the specified block, each containing from/to addresses (with ENS names, tags, proxy type, reputation, scam flags), transaction hash, value, gas limit, block number, timestamp, call type, success/error status, created contract details, and next_page_params for pagination.
