Create Request Link

Request Links make it easy to ask for tokens or payments.

Creating a request link is easy you will need to have your api key (get one here!) and the following data for the request:

Recipient Address

Token Address

Chain Id

Amount to request

Token Decimal

Example code:

plain text
import peanut from '@squirrel-labs/peanut-sdk';

const recipientAddress = '0x42A5DC31169Da17639468e7Ffa271e90Fdb5e85A';
const tokenAddress = '0x0b2C639c533813f4Aa9D7837CAf62653d097Ff85'; // USDC on Optimism
const chainId = '10';  // Optimism
const tokenAmount = '10';
const tokenDecimals = '6';
const APIKey = 'YOUR-API-KEY-HERE';

async function createRequestLink(): Promise<string | undefined> {
  try {
    const { link } = await peanut.createRequestLink({
      chainId,
      tokenAddress,
      tokenAmount,
      tokenType: peanut.interfaces.EPeanutLinkType.erc20, // or EPeanutLinkType.native
      tokenDecimals,
      recipientAddress,
      APIKey,
      // apiUrl: '' // if using a different api endpoint
    });
    return link;
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error creating request link:', error);
    return undefined
  }
}

// Call the function and log the link
createRequestLink().then((link) => console.log(link));
