Authentication

To start using the XRP Ledger Snap, you must first authenticate with your MetaMask wallet. Upon selecting the XRPL Snap, MetaMask will prompt you to authenticate. Approve the connection request to start using the Snap with your XRP Ledger account.

Security Reminder Always ensure that you’re connecting to trusted sites and never share your private keys or mnemonic phrase with anyone.

Getting Your Account's Information

Once authenticated, you can easily access detailed information about your XRP Ledger account:

  1. Access account information: Click into the info icon in the sidebar. Then click into the account details option and a modal with your account's information will be shown.

  1. View balance and transactions: Here, you can view your XRP balance, any issued tokens, and your transaction history.

Signing transactions

The XRP Ledger Snap allows you to securely sign transactions directly within MetaMask:

  1. Initiate a Transaction: Start by creating a transaction either within the Snap interface or on a DApp that supports the XRP Ledger.

  2. Review Transaction Details: MetaMask will display the transaction details. Carefully review the recipient address, amount, and any associated fees.

  3. Sign the Transaction: Once you’ve verified the transaction details, click on the "Sign" button. MetaMask will prompt you to confirm the action. After confirmation, the transaction will be signed using your XRP Ledger private key stored within the Snap.

  4. Broadcast the Transaction: After signing, the transaction will be broadcast to the XRP Ledger network. You can track its status in the transaction history section.

Always verify that all the transaction details are correct. Once the transaction is signed and submitted can not be reverted.

Connect to multiple networks

The XRP Ledger Snap supports connecting to multiple networks.

Switch Networks Within the Snap settings, you can switch between different XRP Ledger networks, such as the mainnet, testnet, or devnet.
