  • Ports: FullNode 8545 / Solidity 8555

Request parameters

Position Type Required Description
params[0] string yes Contract address: 20-byte hex or 21-byte Tron hex beginning with 41, with or without 0x (base58check is not accepted)
params[1] string yes Storage slot index, hex-encoded with or without 0x; values shorter than 32 bytes are left-padded with zeros
params[2] string yes Block tag, only latest is supported
curl -X POST https://nile.trongrid.io/jsonrpc \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getStorageAt","params":["0x9ff8fc48fb114ccd5bbdc24a86f0c73082f08825","0x0","latest"],"id":1}'

Response

The 32-byte slot value, hex-encoded. Returns 32 bytes of zeros when the address is not a contract or the slot has never been written.

The example below is the real response captured from the Nile testnet curl above (the contract's slot 0 holds a uint256 counter with value 0x8):

{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "result": "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000008" }
