Get the create and the consuming exercise event for the contract with the provided ID. No events will be returned for contracts that have been pruned because they have already been archived before the latest pruning offset. If the contract cannot be found for the request, or all the contract-events are filtered, a CONTRACT\_EVENTS\_NOT\_FOUND error will be raised.
