klay_sign

The sign method calculates a Klaytn-specific signature with:

sign(keccak256("\x19Klaytn Signed Message:\n" + len(message) + message)))

Adding a prefix to the message makes the calculated signature recognizable as a Klaytn-specific signature. This prevents misuse where a malicious dApp can sign arbitrary data, e.g., transaction, and use the signature to impersonate the victim.

NOTE: The address to sign with must be unlocked.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
account	20-byte DATA	Address
message	N-byte DATA	Message to sign

Return Value

Type	Description
DATA	Signature

Example

// Request
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"klay_sign","params":["0x9b2055d370f73ec7d8a03e965129118dc8f5bf83", "0xdeadbeaf"],"id":1}' https://kaia.nownodes.io
