# COUNT\_INSTRUCTIONS

## Overview

*This method allows you to aggregate and count instructions with a robust filter object. There are many types of filters you can apply and you can find information regarding those in the* [*Filters*](/carpool/api-reference/filters.md) *section of the docs. The endpoint example here shows off one of the many filters.*

[Carpool\_dev-COUNT\_INSTRUCTIONS-0.1-resolved.json](https://2513171703-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FE1gzfwcjB542lI2VR9XI%2Fuploads%2FRJrkD8Qkan4klelcorSX%2FCarpool_dev-COUNT_INSTRUCTIONS-0.1-resolved.json?alt=media\&token=9a97dc5c-287c-4dfe-84a2-584257de53d7)
{% endopenapi %}

## Filters

As mentioned above, the api definition here illustrates one of Carpool's many filter types. All queries that accept a filter object in the POST body can make use of **any** of the potential filters. Please see the Instruction Filters section of the documentation to better understand how they are implemented for instruction queries.

## Example - Basic

**Program** - *Cypher Protocol*

**Description** *- Count all failed instructions that have an error code of 7.*

#### Javascript

```javascript
var myHeaders = new Headers();
myHeaders.append("x-api-key", "<API_KEY>");
myHeaders.append("Content-Type", "application/json");

var raw = JSON.stringify({
  "type": "COUNT_INSTRUCTIONS",
  "query": {
    "programId": "CYPH3o83JX6jY6NkbproSpdmQ5VWJtxjfJ5P8veyYVu3",
    "filter": {
      "type": "INSTRUCTION_ERROR_CODE",
      "errorCode": 7
    },
    "failures": true
  }
});

var requestOptions = {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: myHeaders,
  body: raw,
  redirect: 'follow'
};

fetch("https://mainnet.carpool.dev/query/solana", requestOptions)
  .then(response => response.text())
  .then(result => console.log(result))
  .catch(error => console.log('error', error));
```

#### cURL

```
curl --location 'https://mainnet.carpool.dev/query/solana' \
--header 'x-api-key: <API_KEY>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "type": "COUNT_INSTRUCTIONS",
    "query": {
        "programId": "CYPH3o83JX6jY6NkbproSpdmQ5VWJtxjfJ5P8veyYVu3",
        "filter": {
            "type": "INSTRUCTION_ERROR_CODE",
            "errorCode": 7
        },
        "failures": true
    }
}'
```

## Example - Advanced

**Program** - *Candy Machine*

**Description** *- Count all instructions that satisfy both filter conditions: The instructions must have an argument at path data.creators.address and the percentage share should be set to 100.*

#### Javascript

```javascript
var myHeaders = new Headers();
myHeaders.append("x-api-key", "<API_KEY>");
myHeaders.append("Content-Type", "application/json");

var raw = JSON.stringify({
  "type": "COUNT_INSTRUCTIONS",
  "query": {
    "programId": "CndyV3LdqHUfDLmE5naZjVN8rBZz4tqhdefbAnjHG3JR",
    "filter": {
      "and": [
        {
          "type": "INSTRUCTION_ARG_EXISTS",
          "path": "data.creators.address"
        },
        {
          "type": "INSTRUCTION_ARG_NUMERIC",
          "path": "data.creators.percentageShare",
          "range": {
            "eq": 100
          }
        }
      ]
    },
    "timeRange": {
      "before": "2023-07-12T22:53:09+0000",
      "after": "2023-07-11T22:53:09+0000"
    },
    "failures": false
  }
});

var requestOptions = {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: myHeaders,
  body: raw,
  redirect: 'follow'
};

fetch("https://mainnet.carpool.dev/query/solana", requestOptions)
  .then(response => response.text())
  .then(result => console.log(result))
  .catch(error => console.log('error', error));
