Transfer a native token

How to perform a basic transfer. E.g transfer ETH from one wallet to another.
It is not possible to transfer value from a wallet without the approval of the user. Therefore to be able to transfer a token, we will need to do two things: i) create the transfer and ii) ask the user for 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 perform a transaction.

Function

//Creating the signer
venlyConnect.createSigner();
//Asking the signer to transfer a certain value to a certain destination.
signer.executeTransfer({
walletId: '<WALLET_ID>',
to: '<BLOCKCHAIN ADDRESS>',
value: 3.1415,
secretType: '<BLOCKCHAIN>',
})

Example

Address
Email
const venlyConnect = new VenlyConnect('YOUR_CLIENT_ID');
//Creating the signer
const signer = venlyConnect.createSigner();
//Asking the signer to transfer to a blockchain address.
signer.executeTransfer({
walletId: 'c8ec9954-fa1a-4682-9cf8-ef5c1015d1d1',
to: '0xf147cA0b981C0CD0955D1323DB9980F4B43e9FED',
value: 0.01415,
secretType: 'ETHEREUM',
})
const venlyConnect = new VenlyConnect('YOUR_CLIENT_ID');
//Creating the signer
const signer = venlyConnect.createSigner();
//Asking the signer to transfer to an email address.
signer.executeTransfer({
walletId: '71dec640-4eb8-4321-adb8-b79461573fc4',
value: 0.01415,
secretType: 'ETHEREUM',
})
🧙 The destination of a transfer is not limited to a blockchain address, we also support email addresses and Unstoppable domains.
