Parameters

object
object
The transaction call object which contains the following fields
fromBlock
string
The block number as a string in hexadecimal format or tags. The supported tag values include earliest for the earliest/genesis block, latest for the latest mined block, pending for the pending state/transactions, safe for the most recent secure block, and finalized for the most recent secure block accepted by more than 2/3 of validators. safe and finalized are only supported on Ethereum, Gnosis, Arbitrum, Arbitrum Nova, and Avalanche C-chain
toBlock
string
The block number as a string in hexadecimal format or tags. The supported tag values include earliest for the earliest/genesis block, latest for the latest mined block, pending for the pending state/transactions, safe for the most recent secure block, and finalized for the most recent secure block accepted by more than 2/3 of validators. safe and finalized are only supported on Ethereum, Gnosis, Arbitrum, Arbitrum Nova, and Avalanche C-chain
address
string
The contract address or a list of addresses from which logs should originate
topics
string
An array of DATA topics and also, the topics are order-dependent. Visit this official page to learn more about topics
blockHash
string
With the addition of EIP-234, blockHash is a new filter option that restricts the logs returned to the block number referenced in the blockHash. Using the blockHash field is equivalent to setting the fromBlock and toBlock to the block number the blockHash references. If blockHash is present in the filter criteria, neither fromBlock nor toBlock is allowed
