I am using polkadot v0.9.25 and run it on dev mode, it's role is authority and after 256 block when I try to fetch the data of 1 block it shows error Unable to retrieve the specified block details. -32000: Client error: UnknownBlock: State already discarded for BlockId::Hash(0xe6e95f56950c847fc44b59ad41a5060750a3b10f60fb4fe2c20fb9b1472098f9) Is there any way to fetch the data of historical blocks without stopping the chain or is there any other flag which help me to fetch the block data.

Did you use any --pruning xxx/--unsafe-pruning flag?

Or maybe it is the default behavior in Substrate now.

Try booting with --pruning archive. And I think it will make a fully resync.
