Managing Delegates

PreviousAccessing Accounts Delegated to YouNextFAQ

Last updated 4 months ago

Adding, removing & renaming existing delegates is a simple task. Let's start by adding a delegate to an existing Smart Margin account.

Adding a New Delegate:

  • Step 1: In the manage modal in the Delegation section, you'll find two sub-tabs, Delegated To & Delegated From. Select Delegated To, and in the input field, enter the wallet address you want to delegate trade rights to; once a wallet address has been entered, push through the onchain transaction.

ENS names are an accepted input and will automatically convert to its resolver address

  • Step 2: Assigning a nickname. The last step in creating a new delegate is to attach a nickname for personal references.

Pro Tip: Custom names are stored in local browser storage, thus will be cleared if users reset their browser cache

  • Step 3: Complete. Once these steps are complete, you'll see the newly assigned delegate within the "Manage Delegations" page.

Removing a Delegate:

Removing a delegate is a painless task. Smart margin account owners can remove delegated access rights at a moment's notice. This can be completed by visiting the delegation setting module and finding the wallet address that needs to be removed. Press "Delete" to remove the delegate.

Renaming Delegates:

Did you make a mistake naming your delegate? Renaming can be accessed under the same options tab traders use to remove/delete existing delegates.
