Circle's API Keys are formatted in the following structure "PREFIX:ID:SECRET". All three parts are requred to make a successful request.

Headers

X-Request-Id
string

Developer-provided parameter used to identify this request. Useful when communicating with Circle Support.

Example:

Body

Schema for the request payload to sign a message.

walletId
string<uuid>
required

System-generated unique identifier of the resource.

Example:

"c4d1da72-111e-4d52-bdbf-2e74a2d803d5"

message
string
required

The user friendly message that needs to be signed. If it is a hex string, encodedByHex needs to be TRUE. The hex string should start with “0x” and have even length.

Example:
