Batch

[Source]

Submit up to eight transactions as a single batch. The transactions in the batch are executed atomically in one of four modes: All or Nothing, Only One, Until Failure, or Independent.

Example Batch JSON

Single Account

In this example, the user is creating an offer while trading on a DEX UI, and the second transaction pays a platform fee. The inner transactions are not signed, and the BatchSigners field is not needed on the outer transaction since there is only one account involved.

Multiple Accounts

In this example, two users are atomically swapping their tokens: XRP for GKO.

Batch Fields

In addition to the common fields, Batch transactions use the following fields:

Field	JSON Type	Internal Type	Required?	Description
`Flags`	Number	UInt32	Yes	A bit-flag for this transaction. Exactly one must be specified to represent the batch mode of the transaction. See: Batch Flags.
`RawTransactions`	Array	Array	Yes	The list of transactions to apply.
`BatchSigners`	Array	Array	No	The signatures authorizing a multi-account `Batch` transaction.

RawTransactions

RawTransactions contains the list of inner transactions to be applied. There can be up to 8 transactions included. These transactions can come from one account or multiple accounts.

Each inner transaction:

Must contain a tfInnerBatchTxn (Decimal Value: 1073741824, or Hex Value: 0x40000000) flag.
Must have a Fee value of "0".
Must not be signed (the global transaction is already signed by all relevant parties). They must instead have an empty string ("") in the SigningPubKey, and the TxnSignature field must be omitted.
Must include a TicketSequence or Sequence value greather than zero.

BatchSigners

This field operates similarly to multi-signing on the XRPL. It is only needed if multiple accounts' transactions are included in the Batch transaction; otherwise, the normal transaction signature provides the same security guarantees.

Field	JSON Type	Internal Type	Required?	Description
`Account`	String	AccountID	Yes	An account with at least one inner transaction.
`SigningPubKey`	String	Blob	No	Hex representation of the public key that corresponds to the private key used to sign this transaction.
`TxnSignature`	String	Blob	No	The signature that verifies this transaction as originating from the account it says it is from.
`Signers`	Array	Array	No	Array of objects that represent a multi-signature which authorizes this transaction.

Note

If the account submitting the Batch transaction is signing with a single signature, they sign the Flags field and the hashes of the inner transactions. In this case, only SigningPubKey and TxnSignature are included. Otherwise, the Signers field is used instead for multi-signing; this field holds the signatures for the Flags field and the hashes of the inner transactions.

Batch Flags

Transactions of the Batch type support additional values in the Flags field, as follows:

Flag Name	Hex Value	Decimal Value	Description
`tfAllOrNothing`	`0x00010000`	65536	All transactions must succeed or else the whole batch fails.
`tfOnlyOne`	`0x00020000`	131072	Only the first successful transaction is applied. All transactions afterward fail or are skipped.
`tfUntilFailure`	`0x00040000`	262144	All transactions are applied until the first failure; subsequent transactions are skipped.
`tfIndependent`	`0x00080000`	524288	All transactions will be applied, regardless of failure.

A transaction is considered successful if it receives a tesSUCCESS result.

Error Cases

Error Code	Description
`temINVALID_INNER_BATCH`	An inner transaction is malformed.
`temSEQ_AND_TICKET`	The transaction contains both a `TicketSequence` field and a non-zero `Sequence` value. A transaction can't include both fields, but must have at least one.
