SealBatch

tapcli assets mint seal SealBatch will attempt to seal the current pending batch by creating and validating asset group witness for all assets in the batch. If a witness is not provided, a signature will be derived to serve as the witness. This RPC is only needed if any assets in the batch have a custom asset group key that require an external signer. Otherwise, FinalizeBatch can be called directly.

Messages

mintrpc.SealBatchRequest

Source: mintrpc/mint.proto

Field	gRPC Type	REST Type	REST Placement
short_response If true, then the assets currently in the batch won't be returned in the response. This is mainly to avoid a lot of data being transmitted and possibly printed on the command line in the case of a very large batch.	bool	boolean	body
group_witnesses The assetID, witness pairs that authorize asset membership in a group.	GroupWitness[]	array	body

mintrpc.SealBatchResponse

Source: mintrpc/mint.proto

Field	gRPC Type	REST Type
batch The sealed batch.	MintingBatch	object

taprpc.AssetType

Name	Number
NORMAL Indicates that an asset is capable of being split/merged, with each of the units being fungible, even across a key asset ID boundary (assuming the key group is the same).	0
COLLECTIBLE Indicates that an asset is a collectible, meaning that each of the other items under the same key group are not fully fungible with each other. Collectibles also cannot be split or merged.	1

Name	Number
ASSET_VERSION_V0 ASSET_VERSION_V0 is the default asset version. This version will include the witness vector in the leaf for a tap commitment.	0
