Step 1: Setup Moralis

Read the article Setting Up Moralis: Getting Started and make sure to finish all the steps. Only after that you can go ahead to complete this guide.

Step 2: Get transactions

In order to get transactions, Moralis provides you a getTransactions endpoint to do so.

Here you'll need one parameter: limit.

Once you have obtained the limit, you can copy the following code:

index.js (JavaScript)

const Moralis = require("moralis").default;

const runApp = async () => {
  await Moralis.start({
    apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY",
    // ...and any other configuration
  });

  const limit = 2;

  const response = await Moralis.AptosApi.transactions.getTransactions({
    limit,
  });

  console.log(response);
};

runApp();

index.ts (TypeScript)

import Moralis from "moralis";

const runApp = async () => {
  await Moralis.start({
    apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY",
    // ...and any other configuration
  });

  const limit = 2;

  const response = await Moralis.AptosApi.transactions.getTransactions({
    limit,
  });

  console.log(response);
};

runApp();

index.py (Python)

from moralis import aptos_api

api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY"

params = {
    "network": "mainnet",
    "limit": 2
}

result = aptos_api.transactions.get_account_transactions(
    api_key=api_key,
    params=params,
)

print(result)

Step 3: Run the script

To run the script, enter the following command:

Shell (JavaScript)

node index.js

Shell (TypeScript)

ts-node index.ts

Shell (Python)

python index.py

In your terminal, you should see the following JSON response:
