2 - User A requests a transaction

Once the user has successfully subscribed to the WebSocket, they can initiate a multisig transaction.

Create the operation

const op: Hive.TransferOperation = [
      'transfer',
      {
        from: 'joe',
        to: 'jane',
        amount: 1,
        memo: 'payment',
      },
    ];

Create a transaction by encapsulating with hiveTx

const _hiveTx = new hiveTx.Transaction();
const transaction = _hiveTx.create([op], getSeconds(expiration))

Encode the transaction

More details on encoding the transaction here.

const txEncode: IEncodeTransaction = {
          transaction: transaction,
          method: 'posting',
          expirationDate: expiration,
          initiator: 'user-a',
        };
        
const multisig = HiveMultisig.getInstance(window: Window,options?:MultisigOptions); 
const encodedTx = await multisig.utils.encodeTransaction(txEncode)

Request for signatures

await multisig.wss.requestSignatures(encodedTx:RequestSignatureMessage);

The multisig.wss.requestSignatures() function informs the backend to distribute the encoded messages to the potential signers.

RequestSignatureMessage object

This object is obtained by encoding the transaction.

Property	Description	Type
signatureRequest	The object that contains the encrypted transaction that needs to be signed.	ISignatureRequest object
initialSigner	Details about the initial signer or initiator.	SignatureRequestInitialSigner object
