for events and extrinsics:
GenericExtrinsic<AnyTuple> EventRecord.event: Event
calling
e.toJSON()
works fine

calling
e.toHuman()

 error: Error: Error in processBlockRange pipe: Error: Error in fetchBlockData: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'toHuman')

This used to work in v10.11.2 and i think it broke in 10.13.1

Can you provide a reproducible example, that would help a lot with narrowing this down.

Can you provide a reproducible example, that would help a lot with narrowing this down.

import { ApiPromise, WsProvider } from "@polkadot/api";
import { Vec } from "@polkadot/types";
import { EventRecord } from "@polkadot/types/interfaces";

(async () => {
  try {
    console.log('Results to-> TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading \'toHuman\') in >=10.13.1')

    const provider = new WsProvider('wss://moonbeam.unitedbloc.com');
    const api = await ApiPromise.create({ provider, throwOnConnect: true });

    for (let blockNumber = 1000000; blockNumber < 1001000; blockNumber++) {
      const hash = await api.rpc.chain.getBlockHash(blockNumber);
      const apiAt = await api.at(hash);

      const allRecords = await apiAt.query.system.events() as Vec<EventRecord>;

      for (const record of allRecords) {
        record.event.toHuman()
      }

      const signedBlock = await api.rpc.chain.getBlock(hash);


      for (let extrinsicIndex = 0; extrinsicIndex < signedBlock.block.extrinsics.length; extrinsicIndex++) {
        const extrinsic = signedBlock.block.extrinsics[extrinsicIndex];
        extrinsic.toHuman()
      }
    }
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err)
    throw err;
  }
})();
