Delegate

A Delegate ledger entry stores a set of permissions that an account has delegated to another account. You create a Delegate entry by sending a DelegateSet transaction.

(Requires the PermissionDelegation amendment .)

Delegate Flags

There are no flags defined for Delegate entries.

Delegate Reserve

Delegate entries count as one item towards the owner reserve of the delegating account, as long as the entry is in the ledger, regardless of how many permissions are delegating. Removing all permissions deletes the entry and frees up the reserve.
