Sign Raw Transaction

This method allows users to:

  • Create a signed UTXO raw transaction given unsigned hex, and optionally a set of prior transaction inputs.
  • Create a signed EVM raw transaction, given the destination address, amount and gas limit.

The transaction can then be broadcasted to the network using the send_raw_transaction to complete the process.

This method is used to sign a raw transaction that has already been created. For UTXO coins, the unsigned hex is required to sign the transaction. If prev_txns is not provided, it will be sourced via electrums.

Request Parameters

StructureTypeDescription
coinstringThe coin to sign the raw transaction with
typestringThe operation type. Accepted values: UTXO ( for utxo coins), ETH (for emv coins)
txobjectA standard RawTxInfo object

Response Parameters

StructureTypeDescription
tx_hexstringThe signed transaction hex, ready for broadcast

Once you have signed the raw transaction, dont forget to broadcast it to the network using the send_raw_transaction method.
