Blockchain explorer with advanced options?

[Iron Fist]

I am currently working with a client which is trying to perform some searches on blockchain data. One of the issues that I am running into is that there is no Blockchain explorer with advanced options, i.e. one where you can filter transactions according to certain criteria. For example, we would like to see only those transactions that started on specified input/output addresses. Do you know of such an online tool?

https://blockchair.com is probably the best I've seen so far.

For example, you can search by hash, block, input/output count, time, fee, size, etc...: https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/transactions

Didn't work that well in the cases I needed it, though.

Using any of the reliable explorers^[1][2] you can search for those input or output addresses and would get all transactions linked to them.
I am yet to see a special option to easily navigate a filter, but just modifying what you are searching for can give the result you want.

All transactions containing an address are under that address in a blockchain explorer, it's not an advanced option.
But maybe you indeed want something (much) more complicated (which you either didn't express well, either I misunderstood). And then you may want to take a look at this topic (and related pages) : Bitcoin in SQL

Can you please elaborate more on what exactly you mean by "transactions started on specified input/output addresses"?

As suggested above, blockchair allows you filter transactions based on some different fields. For example, it allows you filter transactions based on number of inputs and outputs or their value. But I don't understand what you mean by "specified input/output addresses".

OP's wording is indeed a bit confusing because if you look up an address on any blockexplorer you will see all the transactions it received (address used as output) and transactions it sent (address used as input).
However, I believe OP is looking for some more advanced features like what blockchair (suggested by TryNinja) offers.
OP, if this is a serious project and you will need to make multiple queries and need fast results then you might want to check their paid api service: https://blockchair.com/api

Maybe you meant to say filter transactions from address A to address B? if so, I'd look into visualizer tools like breadcrumbs.app

The Blockchair is enough I think but if you are looking for a more advanced option and you know how to use API blockstream would be a good alternative.

There are lots of commands that you can use in Blockstream API and API can be found here https://github.com/Blockstream/esplora/blob/master/API.md
And you can find more blockchain explorer tools here https://github.com/dubuqingfeng/awesome-blockchain-explorer

Member witcher_sense posted the below interesting link that searches out probable wasabi conjoins using blockchair, this is an example of the kinds of options:

https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/transactions?s=time(desc)&q=input_count(50..),output_count(58..),time(2022-06-26..),version(1)#f=hash,input_count,output_count,time,fee_usd,output_total,output_total_usd,version

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. It seems to me that the only solution is by using the API and combing through the data on my end.

Yeah, that's exactly what I meant. I just thought there was something simpler because I don't need visualization and other tools.
Thank you!

I actually think it fits the term "simpler"--at least for me and my use cases-- like you put in an address, get a graph and when you select a path, a window will pop up showing the transactions:



In any case, nice to see that you found a workaround!

There was, somewhere on this forum, a list of all the Bitcoin blockchain explorers that are out there. However, I couldn't find it.
In case anyone finds it, please let me know.

You are probably referring to the topic created by 1miau. Click the following link to visit the thread.

There's another topic created by bullrun2020bro.

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for.
