Initialize wallet signing

Sets up Managed custody for the project's named provider by creating its active signing configuration and first wallet.

POST/v1/wallets/initializeRun in dashboard

Production projects use BYOK only: there this returns 403 with details.reason custody_mode_not_allowed, and wallets are created in a Custody Connection with POST /v1/wallets and connectionId.

Requires an API key with the wallets.configure action.

Headers

    Required for dashboard sessions. API keys use their assigned project.

  • Idempotency-Key · string

    Use a unique 1–255 printable ASCII key per operation. Reuse it with the same request on retries. An in-flight attempt returns 409; a changed request returns 422. Retry and recovery rules.

  • 401 Unauthorized

    Same fields as 400.

  • 403 Forbidden. Requires the wallets.configure action: an API key must hold it (a module's manage or execute also covers its read), and a signed-in member's organization role must include it. Without it the error is INSUFFICIENT_PERMISSIONS and error.details.action names the action. Any other 403 names its own reason. Forbidden: the caller lacks the route's action or the API key is wallet-scoped, or custody setup was refused. A refusal's details.reason names the failed check: custody_mode_not_allowed when a Production project names Managed custody (Production is BYOK only), custody_provider_not_in_release_channel, or provider_not_entitled.

    Same fields as 400.

  • 404 Not Found

    Same fields as 400.

  • 409 Conflict

    Same fields as 400.

  • 422 Unprocessable Entity

    Same fields as 400.

  • 500 Internal Server Error

    Same fields as 400.

  • 503 PROVIDER_NOT_CONFIGURED: the deployment holds no credentials for the provider in the project's environment (details.reason provider_not_configured).

    Same fields as 400.
