Link Signer

Each subaccount can have at most one linked signer at a time. A linked signer can perform any execute on behalf of the subaccount it is linked to. Use the Linked Signer query to view your current linked signer.

Rate limits

• A max of 5 link signer requests every 7 days per subaccount. (weight=50). Use the Linked Signer Rate Limit query to check a subaccount's linked signer usage and remaining wait time.

See more details in API Rate limits.

Request Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
tx	object	Yes	A link signer transaction object. See Signing section for details on the transaction fields.
tx.sender	string	Yes	Hex string representing the subaccount’s 32 bytes (address + subaccount name) of the tx sender.
tx.signer	string	Yes	A bytes32 sent as a hex string; includes the address (first 20 bytes) that’ll be used as the sender's signer. the last 12 bytes can be set to anything.
tx.nonce	string	Yes	This is an incrementing nonce, can be obtained using the Nonces query.
signature	string	Yes	Signed transaction. See Signing section for more details.

​Signing

See more details and examples in our signing page.

The solidity typed data struct that needs to be signed is:

struct LinkSigner {
    bytes32 sender;
    bytes32 signer;
    uint64 nonce;
}

sender: a bytes32 sent as a hex string; includes the address and the subaccount identifier of the primary subaccount to add a signer to.

signer: a bytes32 sent as a hex string; includes the address (first 20 bytes) that’ll be used as the sender's signer.

Notes:

• the last 12 bytes of the signer field do not matter and can be set to anything.

• set signer to the zero address to revoke current signer on the provided sender.

nonce: the tx_nonce. This is an incrementing nonce, can be obtained using the Nonces query.

Note: for signing you should always use the data type specified in the solidity struct which might be different from the type sent in the request e.g: nonce should be an uint64 for Signing but should be sent as a string in the final payload.
