eth_call

Get Call

POSThttps://site1.moralis-nodes.com/:chain/:apiKey

The eth_call method allows for the execution of a message call to a contract. It can be used to call functions on contracts without sending a transaction. This means it doesn't alter the blockchain and is executed only locally to return a response.

Note

Please refer to RPC schema page for more details on the RPC params and RPC response definitions of the RPC method.
