Table description
Thepolkadot.calls table represents internal calls within Substrate extrinsics, including recursive calls from proxy and utility (batch) pallets, and provides detailed call arguments at each level of the call tree. Unlike the extrinsics table which only captures the top-level call, this table exposes the full call hierarchy.
Common queries on the calls table will typically filter on block_time, call_section and call_method and extract JSON encoded information in
data or decoded_data.
