This is a POST endpoint because the "key" for requesting a specific table item (TableItemRequest) could be quite complex, as each of its fields could themselves be composed of other structs. This makes it impractical to express using query params, meaning GET isn't an option. The Aptos nodes prune account state history, via a configurable time window. If the requested ledger version has been pruned, the server responds with a 410. Get a table item at a specific ledger version from the table. This method will use `150` [Compute Units](/nodeapi/about/billing). *** ## OpenAPI ````yaml nodeapi/openapi/document-aptos-with-v1-fix.json POST /tables/{table_handle}/item openapi: 3.0.0 info: title: Aptos Node API description: >- The Aptos Node API is a RESTful API for client applications to interact with the Aptos blockchain. version: 1.2.0 contact: name: Aptos Labs url: https://github.com/aptos-labs/aptos-core license: name: Apache 2.0 url: https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html servers: - url: https://mainnet.aptos.validationcloud.io/v1//v1 security: [] tags: - name: Accounts description: Access to accounts, resources, and modules - name: Blocks description: Access to blocks - name: Events description: Access to events - name: General description: General information - name: Tables description: Access to tables - name: Transactions description: Access to transactions - name: View description: View functions, externalDocs: url: https://github.com/aptos-labs/aptos-core paths: /tables/{table_handle}/item: post: tags: - Tables summary: Get table item description: >- Get a table item at a specific ledger version from the table identified by {table_handle} in the path and the "key" (TableItemRequest) provided in the request body.

uint64 components: schemas: Address: type: string format: hex description: > A hex encoded 32 byte Aptos account address. This is represented in a string as a 64 character hex string, sometimes shortened by stripping leading 0s, and adding a 0x. For example, address 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 is represented as 0x1. example: '0x88fbd33f54e1126269769780feb24480428179f552e2313fbe571b72e62a1ca1 ' U64: type: string format: uint64 description: > A string containing a 64-bit unsigned integer.

Empty chars should be ignored when comparing 2 struct tag ids. 2. When used in an URL path, should be encoded by url-encoding (AKA percent-encoding). pattern: ^(bool|u8|u64|u128|address|signer|vector<.+>|0x[0-9a-zA-Z:_<, >]+)$ U128: type: string format: uint128 description: > A string containing a 128-bit unsigned integer. We represent u128 values as a string to ensure compatibility with languages such as JavaScript that do not parse u128s in JSON natively. example: '340282366920938463463374607431768211454' U256: type: string format: uint256 description: > A string containing a 256-bit unsigned integer. We represent u256 values as a string to ensure compatibility with languages such as JavaScript that do not parse u256s in JSON natively. example: '340282366920938463463374607431768211454' HexEncodedBytes: type: string format: hex description: > All bytes (Vec) data is represented as hex-encoded string prefixed with `0x` and fulfilled with two hex digits per byte. Unlike the `Address` type, HexEncodedBytes will not trim any zeros. example: '0x88fbd33f54e1126269769780feb24480428179f552e2313fbe571b72e62a1ca1 ' MoveStructValue: type: object description: > This is a JSON representation of some data within an account resource. More specifically, it is a map of strings to arbitrary JSON values / objects, where the keys are top level fields within the given resource. To clarify, you might query for 0x1::account::Account and see the example data. Move `bool` type value is serialized into `boolean`. Move `u8`, `u16` and `u32` type value is serialized into `integer`. Move `u64`, `u128` and `u256` type value is serialized into `string`. Move `address` type value (32 byte Aptos account address) is serialized into a HexEncodedBytes string. For example: - `0x1` - `0x1668f6be25668c1a17cd8caf6b8d2f25` Move `vector` type value is serialized into `array`, except `vector` which is serialized into a HexEncodedBytes string with `0x` prefix. For example: - `vector{255, 255}` => `["255", "255"]` - `vector{255, 255}` => `0xffff` Move `struct` type value is serialized into `object` that looks like this (except some Move stdlib types, see the following section): ```json { field1_name: field1_value, field2_name: field2_value, ...... } ``` For example: `{ "created": "0xa550c18", "role_id": "0" }` **Special serialization for Move stdlib types**: - [0x1::string::String](https://github.com/aptos-labs/aptos-core/blob/main/language/move-stdlib/docs/ascii.md) is serialized into `string`. For example, struct value `0x1::string::String{bytes: b"Hello World!"}` is serialized as `"Hello World!"` in JSON. example: authentication_key: '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001' coin_register_events: counter: '0' guid: id: addr: '0x1' creation_num: '0' self_address: '0x1' sequence_number: '0' AptosErrorCode: type: string description: |- These codes provide more granular error information beyond just the HTTP status code of the response. enum: - account_not_found - resource_not_found - module_not_found - struct_field_not_found - version_not_found - transaction_not_found - table_item_not_found - block_not_found - version_pruned - block_pruned - invalid_input - invalid_transaction_update - sequence_number_too_old - vm_error - health_check_failed - mempool_is_full - internal_error - web_framework_error - bcs_not_supported - api_disabled ```` This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
