Node wallet guide

The wallet API can be called using our Swagger UI at http://127.0.0.1:12973/docs or by using curl. Make sure that your full node is running so you could access the Swagger UI.

Create a new wallet

You can create a new wallet by doing a POST with the following data on /wallets.

JSON

{
  "password": "123456",
  "walletName": "foo" //optional (wallet-x) by default
}

The server must response successfully giving you our new wallet mnemonic.

JSON

{
  "walletName": "foo",
  "mnemonic": "laptop tattoo torch range exclude fuel bike menu just churn then busy century select cactus across other merge vivid alarm asset genius mountain transfer"
}

Fetch your new wallet address by GET /wallets/{wallet_name}/addresses

JSON

{
  "activeAddress": "T1J2yrmQrNwuFW8z2W6xXFLtJoBCWEm7gLg9BuY8tzKjxw",
  "addresses": ["T1J2yrmQrNwuFW8z2W6xXFLtJoBCWEm7gLg9BuY8tzKjxw"]
