Create Settlements

Overview

When you're done trading, create multi-asset settlements with your counterparties. Either party can initiate a settlement. However, both parties must acknowledge a settlement before it's finalized and assets transfer between Go Accounts. Settlements can only occur between partners who connect Go Accounts, using the Counterparties.

Prerequisites

1. Create Settlement

The addressBookConnectionId and addressBookConnectionUpdatedAt timestamp identify your counterparty for the settlement. If you need to find these values, you can call the Lists counterparty Go Account connections endpoint.

2. Sign Settlement (Optional)

If you're sending assets in the settlement, you must sign the settlement to confirm the transaction. However, if you're only receiving assets in a settlement, signing is optional.

Substep Result

Signing a settlement places the assets in your Go Account into a held state, preventing them from use in other transactions. If your Go Account has an insufficient balance to cover the settlement, then the request is rejected.

Note: If the signing fails for any reason, the settlement cancels.
