wallet_getHeaderForHeight

Gets the 80-byte block header at a given height.

Result

The BRC-100 getHeaderForHeight result, encoded as JSON text. Wallet failures return an error result.

Permissions

Forwarded to the connected wallet under the configured app origin. Its protocol, certificate or basket permission checks apply to the requested operation.

In role-routed configurations, walletRole selects an assigned wallet. Identity methods default to the identity role; encryption and HMAC use the encryption role. Transaction and basket operations follow their assigned role. An unavailable role fails rather than borrowing another key.

Also available through wallet_read in compact mode.
