Analytics tools

The following guide lists platforms you can use to gather analytics and setup customizations about Metal L2.

Blocknative

Blocknative (opens in a new tab) lets you decode (opens in a new tab) and analyze (opens in a new tab) OP Stack Batches submitted to the Ethereum L1. You can inspect, analyze, decode, and download the data of any batch – confirmed on-chain or not – via public APIs or visually through the Ethernow Explorer (opens in a new tab). Below you can find links to the different resources:

thirdweb

thirdweb (opens in a new tab) insight is a powerful indexer for onchain data compatible with any EVM, letting you index, query and transform blockchain data. With insight you get:

  • Raw blockchain transaction & events APIs to get any data quickly & reliably
  • Custom API schemas (”blueprints”) for flexible data pipelining
  • Shareable blueprints for fast transactions

Start building with thirdweb Insight (opens in a new tab)

thirdweb Insight can be used to:

  • Fetch all assets & metadata (ERC20, ERC721, ERC115) for a given wallet address.
  • Fetch all sales of skins on your in-game marketplace
  • Fetch daily active wallets for your application or game And so much more

Tenderly

Tenderly (opens in a new tab) monitoring stack lets you inspect any transaction execution on Metal L2 or Metal L2 Testnet (opens in a new tab).

You can inspect the state of your verified contract in any step of the transaction's execution, as well as step into or over function calls. The level of detail the Tenderly dashboard presents will reduce your development time as well as help you understand the execution flow of transactions. It helps you to inspect states at every instance of transaction and gives a platform to trace transactions. You can also simulate pending (or any other historical) transactions and see their exact outcomes.

Dune analytics

Dune Analytics (opens in a new tab) allows anyone to create dashboards that present information about OP Chains (Metal L2, Base, and Zora are available). See Dune Docs (opens in a new tab) for more info. You can find a list of community created dashboards for OP Chains here (opens in a new tab), or create your own (opens in a new tab) dashboard.

Here are some of our favorite dashboards so far:
