/sendShimmerTransaction

1 min

POST

Send a Shimmer (SMR) transaction using the specified parameters.

Use getSuggestedFee to get the current suggested fee before running the transaction.

NOTE: Success or failure in this API call does not necessarily mean success or failure in the transaction itself. For example, the transaction may succeed, but the "success" response to the client can be lost if the client's internet connection is down. To verify the status of the transaction:

Call getCurrentToken and store it.
Send your transaction. The transaction will use the token from step 1.
Call getTransactionByToken using the stored token to track the status of the transaction.
