requestAddresses

Requests a list of accounts managed by a wallet.

requestAddresses sends a request to the wallet, asking for permission to access the user's accounts. After the user accepts the request, it will return a list of accounts (addresses).

This API can be useful for dapps that need to access the user's accounts in order to execute transactions or interact with smart contracts.

Usage

ts
import { walletClient } from './client'
 
const accounts = await walletClient.requestAddresses() 
// ['0xa5cc3c03994DB5b0d9A5eEdD10CabaB0813678AC']
ts
import { createWalletClient, custom } from 'viem'
import { mainnet } from 'viem/chains'

export const walletClient = createWalletClient({
  chain: mainnet,
  transport: custom(window.ethereum)
})

Returns

Address[]
