How to Query ERC-20 Token Balances and Transactions Using Ethers.js and Etherscan API

Tutorial October 24, 2024

Now let’s query the ERC-20 token transfer history for a specific wallet address using the Etherscan API.

const axios = require('axios');

// Replace with your Etherscan API key
const apiKey = 'YOUR_ETHERSCAN_API_KEY';

// Replace with the wallet address you want to query
const address = '0xYourEthereumAddress';

// Replace with the ERC-20 token contract address
const contractAddress = '0xTokenContractAddress';

// Etherscan API URL to fetch ERC-20 token transactions
const url = `https://api.etherscan.io/api?module=account&action=tokentx&contractaddress=${contractAddress}&address=${address}&startblock=0&endblock=99999999&sort=asc&apikey=${apiKey}`;

async function getTokenTransactions() {
    try {
        // Make the API request to Etherscan
        const response = await axios.get(url);
        const transactions = response.data.result;

        // Log the token transactions
        transactions.forEach(tx => {
            console.log(`
                From: ${tx.from}
                To: ${tx.to}
                Value: ${ethers.utils.formatUnits(tx.value, 18)} Tokens
                Transaction Hash: ${tx.hash}
            `);
        });
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error fetching token transactions:', error);
    }
}

// Call the function to get the token transactions
getTokenTransactions();
