Parameters

​
Required Parameters

  • privateKey (string) - The Solana private key to import
  • chainName (string) - The chain name (use ‘SVM’ for Solana chains)
  • thresholdSignatureScheme (ThresholdSignatureScheme) - The threshold signature scheme for the wallet
  • password (string) - Wallet password for security

​
Optional Parameters

  • backUpToClientShareService (boolean) - Whether to backup key shares to the client share service

​
Returns

  • Promise<object> - Object containing wallet information:
    • accountAddress - The wallet’s account address
    • rawPublicKey - Raw public key
    • externalServerKeyShares - Array of external server key shares

​
Example

import { authenticatedSvmClient } from './client';
import { ThresholdSignatureScheme } from '@dynamic-labs-wallet/node';

const svmClient = await authenticatedSvmClient();

const wallet = await svmClient.importPrivateKey({
  privateKey: 'YourSolanaPrivateKey',
  chainName: 'SVM',
  thresholdSignatureScheme: ThresholdSignatureScheme.TWO_OF_TWO,
  password: 'your-password',
  backUpToClientShareService: true,
});

console.log('Solana wallet imported:', wallet.accountAddress);

​
Error Handling

try {
  const wallet = await svmClient.importPrivateKey({
    privateKey: 'YourSolanaPrivateKey',
    chainName: 'SVM',
    thresholdSignatureScheme: ThresholdSignatureScheme.TWO_OF_TWO,
    password: 'your-password',
    backUpToClientShareService: true,
  });
  console.log('Private key imported successfully');
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Failed to import private key:', error);
