Sign a message

How to ask users to sign a message.

Suggest Edits

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.

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:

{
    result: {
        r: "0xc5e7a538a353c53e839ed0a2cf7b726806114b637ad1c527046adfc92fecf0d8"
        s: "0x551041e78e3b3d4432f653d708965d34aceaf067255d9cc5970283b00d5f95e0"
        signature: "0xc5e7a538a353c53e839ed0a2cf7b726806114b637ad1c527046adfc92fecf0d8551041e78e3b3d4432f653d708965d34aceaf067255d9cc5970283b00d5f95e01b"
        v: "0x1b"
    }
    status: "SUCCESS"
}
