converttopsbt

converttopsbt "hexstring" ( permitsigdata iswitness )

Converts a network serialized transaction to a PSBT. This should be used only with createrawtransaction and fundrawtransaction createpsbt and walletcreatefundedpsbt should be used for new applications.

Argument #1 - hexstring​

Type: string, required

The hex string of a raw transaction

Argument #2 - permitsigdata​

Type: boolean, optional, default=false

If true, any signatures in the input will be discarded and conversion

will continue. If false, RPC will fail if any signatures are present.

Argument #3 - iswitness​

Type: boolean, optional, default=depends on heuristic tests

Whether the transaction hex is a serialized witness transaction.

If iswitness is not present, heuristic tests will be used in decoding. If true, only witness deserialization will be tried. If false, only non-witness deserialization will be tried. This boolean should reflect whether the transaction has inputs (e.g. fully valid, or on-chain transactions), if known by the caller.

Result​

NameTypeDescription
strstringThe resulting raw transaction (base64-encoded string)

Example usage (with RPC call)​

Create a transaction:

BGL-cli createrawtransaction "[{\"txid\":\"myid\",\"vout\":0}]" "[{\"data\":\"00010203\"}]"

Convert the transaction to a PSBT:

BGL-cli converttopsbt "rawtransaction"
