Special Transaction Types
In Xumm, you can use all XRPL transaction types when sending a JSON transaction payload. However, some special transaction types are unique to Xumm.
Pseudo Transactions:
SignIn
Xumm specific, signature only, can never be submitted. When sending a JSON transaction payload, you can use all XRPL transaction types, including a Xumm-specific "pseudo transaction type":SignIn
.The payload for a SignIn transaction can look like this:
After the user signs your SignIn request, the server-to-server call (to your configured Webhook location) will receive the signed transaction containing the signed transaction HEX blob.
You can verify the signature using the
verify-xrpl-signature
package: https://github.com/XRPL-Labs/verify-xrpl-signaturePaymentChannelAuthorize
Is normally a 'Command' or locally signed object. Implemented in Xumm as a TransactionType (which it actually isn't, also: the resulting signed blob can never be submitted to an XRPL node as is). For more information, see: https://xrpl.org/use-payment-channels.html Sample PayChan transactions (gist): https://gist.github.com/WietseWind/c7b6addfd9b8cb465894209cc9073c47
Note: The SignIn
transaction type is particularly useful when you want to authenticate a user without performing any transaction on the XRPL. The PaymentChannelAuthorize
transaction type, on the other hand, is useful when you want to authorize a payment channel without submitting a transaction to the XRPL.
