Intro

Signing a message is the equivalent to asking the user to sign his signature. Therefore to sign a message, we need to define the message for the user to sign and request his approval.

The object that can ask the user his approval is called a Signer, once we've created a Signer object we can use the Signer to sign the message.

🚧

To perform actions on a wallet , such as transactions or signatures, the wallet has to be linked to your application. The easiest way to link a wallet to your application in to use getAccount flow. The benefits of using the getAccount flow is that this flow bundles multiple actions into one call.

Function:

//Asking the signer to sign a message.
venlyConnect.signer.signMessage({
    walletId: '<WALLET_ID>',
    secretType: '<BLOCKCHAIN>',
    data : "<YOUR_MESSAGE>"
})

Example:

venlyConnect.signer.signMessage({
    walletId: 'c8ec9954-fa1a-4682-9cf8-ef5c1015d1d1',
    secretType: 'ETHEREUM',
    data : "I agree with terms and conditions"
})

Returns:

{
  status: "SUCCESS",
  result: {
    type: "HEX_SIGNATURE",
    r: "0xa4ba7f9658160ca97f1211d1d65e4eb4a2ddb3db15c9e992ec594f3f878c29f6",
    s: "0x37a505499d8ed726a2d6714adfe54218ea55167cc451eac644cee67b9ab7d8a6",
    v: "0x1b",
    signature: "0xa4ba7f9658160ca97f1211d1d65e4eb4a2ddb3db15c9e992ec594f3f878c29f637a505499d8ed726a2d6714adfe54218ea55167cc451eac644cee67b9ab7d8a61b"
  }
}
