<p>I am looking for a way to list all the transactions of an address. For instance, if we use the Blokchain.info API we get:</p>

<pre><code>url='https://blockchain.info/rawaddr/1PFtrRjbq4aLfM7k4tyLZ3ZAuTsgLr6Q8Q'
request=requests.get(url)
addr=request.json()
</code></pre>

<p>Total number of transactions that have ever been made:</p>

<pre><code>addr['n_tx']
69990
</code></pre>

<p>Now if we want to access to the list of these transactions:</p>

<pre><code>addr['txs']
</code></pre>

<p>We get a list of transactions that have been by this address, but when we check the lenght of this list to see how much transactions we got:</p>

<pre><code>len(addr['txs'])
</code></pre>

<p>we find 50.</p>

<p>With Blockexplorer API, we can have up to 1000 transactions for an adress.
I have tried some other API like SoChain, still the same issue (only 50 transactions).</p>

<p><strong>Do you know a way to have access to all the transactions given an adress</strong> - just the list of their hashes - (in our case it is 69990) ?</p>

<p>I do not want to download the blockchain because I just do not have enough space for it.</p>

<p>Thank you !</p>

All of these APIs allow paginations, so you can get 1 page of 50, then another of 51-100, then 101-150 and so on.

The issue is that the API call rate limit is very strict, so in order to build the list of transactions since the genesis block will take a lot of time..

Yes, but you only need to do it once. Spend a day or so pulling in all that data, then save it locally. Once you have that, you just need to check from the last block you have locally. Also, I don't think they are that strict. 70k txs should be easily retrievable in a few hours.

Do you know a way to have access to all the transactions given an adress - just the list of their hashes - (in our case it is 69990) ?

Thank you !
