Get your free API key

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:

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();

Step 3: Run the script

To run the script, enter the following command:

node index.js

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