Records and pricing

Discover how Records are used in Streams API to determine usage and pricing. Records are either a transaction (txs), log (logs) or internal transactions (txsInternal) in the webhook response.

Summary

• A record is either a transaction (txs), log (logs) or internal transactions (txsInternal) in the webhook response.
• Records is the base for usage of Streams
• Records are only counted towards your usage for webhooks with confirmed:true so webhooks with confirmed:false are free
• Decoded logs are also free they do NOT count as Records.

What is the record?

A record is either a transaction (txs in response), log (logs in response) or internal transaction (txsInternal in response). The number of records in a webhook is the sum of txs + logs + txsInternal.

In the header of a webhook, you can find the total number of records in that webhook in the header x-records-charged.

In this example, the x-records-charged is 20 so the webhook contains 20 records.

headers: {  
    'x-region': 'us-west-2',  
    'x-queue-size': '0',  
    'x-records-charged': ‘20’  
    'x-signature': '0xdf49163b5273b50a8da48e82b7254b45d81aeee9a02f1909a45d7aaea240e9c2',  
  }

Only confirmed blocks will be charged, unconfirmed blocks will have 'x-records-charged': ‘0’

Records determine usage

Records handle the usage of Streams API. In your plan, you have an included amount of records for free. You can find your included limits under your billing page https://admin.moralis.io/account/billing.

For each transaction, you get two webhooks (read more here), records are only counted towards your usage for webhooks with Confirmed status True.

Check your total consumed record for a period

By using /status (see API reference) you will get a summary of totalLogsProcessed, totalTxsProcessed, and totalTxsInternalProcessed for your current billing period.

Example:

{  
  "totalWebhooksDelivered": 1288,  
  "totalWebhooksFailed": 17,  
  "totalLogsProcessed": 4257,  
  "totalTxsProcessed": 0,  
  "totalTxsInternalProcessed": 0  
}

Where your total consumed records for the current billing period would be "totalLogsProcessed": 4257 + "totalTxsProcessed": 0 + "totalTxsInternalProcessed": 0. In this case total consumption is 4257.

Check one streams total consumed records for a period

By using /stats/{streamId} (see API reference) you will get a summary of totalLogsProcessed, totalTxsProcessed, and totalTxsInternalProcessed for that specific stream.

Example:

{  
  "totalWebhooksDelivered": 0,  
  "totalWebhooksFailed": 0,  
  "totalLogsProcessed": 0,  
  "totalTxsProcessed": 0,  
  "totalTxsInternalProcessed": 0,  
  "createdAt": "2022-10-25T08:21:00.877Z",  
  "updatedAt": "2022-10-25T08:21:00.877Z"  
}

Where your total consumed records for the current billing period would be totalLogsProcessed + totalTxsProcessed + totalTxsInternalProcessed.

Records per transaction type

It depends on the selected address activity how many records will be charged

• Contract Interactions (logs)
• Native Transactions (txs)
• Internal Transactions (txsInternal)

Description	Number of records*
Stream with txs, logs and a erc20 transfer event is emitted	2
Stream with txs, logs and 10 NFT Tokens (ERC721) were transferred in one transaction	11
Stream with txs, logs and 30 NFT Tokens (ERC1155 Batch) were transferred in one transaction	2
Stream with logs and a ERC721 NFT is minted with 100 Tokens	100
Stream with txs and a native transfer takes place	1

*The number of records for logs depends on the contract emitting the events, more complex contracts could emit more records

Decoded logs

Moralis will decode and enrich standardized contracts (ERC20/ERC721/ERC1155), for each log that matches one of those contracts, a decoded log will be generated, currently, the decoded logs are:

• erc20Transfers
• erc20Approvals
• nftTransfers

Decoded logs are free they do NOT count as Records.
