@frranck You can use the getblockstats RPC command to get the subsidy (in satoshis) at the specified block height.

$ curl --user myuser:mypass --data '{"method":"getblockstats","params":[628768],"id":1,"jsonrpc":"2.0"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST "rpcServerURL"  | jq ".result.subsidy"

@frranck I'm assuming from the 🚀 reaction that we can close this issue. 🙂
