Send Signed Transaction with the Flow CLI
How to send a signed Flow transaction from the command line
The Flow CLI provides a command to send signed transactions to any Flow Access API.
Use this functionality in the following order:
- Use the
build
command to build the transaction. - Use the
sign
command to sign with each account specified in the build process. - Use this command (
send-signed
) to submit the signed transaction to the Flow network.
flow transactions send-signed <signed transaction filename>
Example Usage
> flow transactions send-signed ./signed.rlp
