# ots_getInternalOperations | Hyperliquid EVM

> Get internal ETH transfers and operations within a transaction on Hyperliquid EVM. Track value movements through contract interactions.

<Info>
  This method is available on Chainstack. Not all Hyperliquid methods are available on Chainstack, as the open-source node implementation does not support them yet — see [Hyperliquid methods](/docs/hyperliquid-methods) for the full availability breakdown.
</Info>

The `ots_getInternalOperations` JSON-RPC method retrieves all internal ETH transfers and operations that occurred within a transaction on the Hyperliquid EVM blockchain. This Otterscan-specific method reveals value transfers that happen inside smart contract execution, which are not visible in standard transaction receipts.

## Parameters

1. **transaction hash** (string, required): The hash of the transaction to analyze

## Response

The method returns an array of internal operation objects representing all value transfers within the transaction.

### Response structure

Each internal operation contains:

* `type` — the operation type (0: transfer, 1: self-destruct, 2: create, 3: create2)
* `from` — the address sending the value
* `to` — the address receiving the value
* `value` — the amount of ETH transferred in wei (hex)

## Usage example

```shell Shell theme={"system"}
curl -X POST https://hyperliquid-mainnet.core.chainstack.com/4f8d8f4040bdacd1577bff8058438274/evm \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "ots_getInternalOperations",
    "params": ["0xf94f3d2ed5b59aefb6a0e566af8e86552014d84f6ed2f38a1366dedffe723381"],
    "id": 1
  }'
```

### Example response

```json theme={"system"}
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "result": [
    {
      "type": 0,
      "from": "0x5555555555555555555555555555555555555555",
      "to": "0x6666666666666666666666666666666666666666",
      "value": "0xde0b6b3a7640000"
    },
    {
      "type": 0,
      "from": "0x6666666666666666666666666666666666666666",
      "to": "0x7777777777777777777777777777777777777777",
      "value": "0x6f05b59d3b20000"
    }
  ]
}
```

### Operation types

The `type` field indicates the operation:

* `0` — Regular ETH transfer
* `1` — Self-destruct (contract deletion with balance transfer)
* `2` — Contract creation via CREATE opcode
* `3` — Contract creation via CREATE2 opcode

## Use cases

The `ots_getInternalOperations` method is essential for:

* **Value flow analysis**: Track how ETH moves through complex contract interactions
* **DeFi debugging**: Understand token swaps and liquidity operations
* **Security auditing**: Detect unexpected value transfers in contracts
* **Payment splitting**: Analyze how contracts distribute payments
* **Fee tracking**: Monitor protocol fees and revenue sharing
* **MEV analysis**: Study arbitrage and sandwich attack patterns
* **Wallet tracking**: Follow funds through mixer and privacy protocols
* **Tax reporting**: Identify all value transfers for accounting
* **Contract verification**: Ensure contracts handle ETH as expected
* **Forensic analysis**: Investigate exploits and fund movements

This method is particularly valuable for understanding complex DeFi transactions where multiple contracts interact and transfer value in ways not visible through standard transaction data.
