info

The following fields are optional:

  • spendSecretKey
  • spendPublicKey
  • newAddress
  • scanHeight

Request description:​

    "spendSecretKey": Private spend key. If spendSecretKey was specified, RPC Wallet creates spend address
    "spendPublicKey": Public spend key. If spendPublicKey was specified, RPC Wallet creates view address
    "newAddress": Is this a new address being created? If so, blocks before the creation timestamp will not be scanned. Defaults to true if neither keys are given, as it is guaranteed to be a new address.
    "scanHeight": The height to begin scanning for transactions at. Only applies if a public/secret key is supplied. This can greatly speed up wallet syncing time.
