DepositPreauth

[Source]

A DepositPreauth object tracks a preauthorization from one account to another. DepositPreauth transactions create these objects.

This has no effect on processing of transactions unless the account that provided the preauthorization requires Deposit Authorization. In that case, the account that was preauthorized can send payments and other transactions directly to the account that provided the preauthorization. Preauthorizations are one-directional, and have no effect on payments going the opposite direction.

DepositPreauth Fields

A DepositPreauth object has the following fields:

Field JSON Type Internal Type Description
LedgerEntryType String UInt16 The value 0x0070, mapped to the string DepositPreauth, indicates that this is a DepositPreauth object.
Account String Account The account that granted the preauthorization. (The destination of the preauthorized payments.)
Authorize String Account The account that received the preauthorization. (The sender of the preauthorized payments.)
Flags Number UInt32 A bit-map of boolean flags. No flags are defined for DepositPreauth objects, so this value is always 0.
OwnerNode String UInt64 A hint indicating which page of the sender's owner directory links to this object, in case the directory consists of multiple pages. Note: The object does not contain a direct link to the owner directory containing it, since that value can be derived from the Account.
PreviousTxnID String Hash256 The identifying hash of the transaction that most recently modified this object.
PreviousTxnLgrSeq Number UInt32 The index of the ledger that contains the transaction that most recently modified this object.

DepositPreauth ID Format

The ID of a DepositPreauth object is the SHA-512Half of the following values, concatenated in order:

  • The DepositPreauth space key (0x0070)
  • The AccountID of the owner of this object (the sender of the DepositPreauth transaction that created this object; in other words, the one that granted the preauthorization)
  • The AccountID of the preauthorized account (the Authorized field of the DepositPreauth transaction that created this object; in other words, the one that received the preauthorization)
