Owners control resources in the Privy API, allowing them to modify or take actions with resources, such as updating a policy or sending a transaction with a wallet. Signers have the ability to send transactions from a given wallet within the scope of certain policies.Learn more about using owners and signers below.
To assign an owner to a resource, pass the owner’s identifier (authorization key, user ID, or key quorum ID) in the owner field of the resource. If the resource is a wallet, set the wallet’s policy_ids to set the policy that the owner should be subject to.Once an owner is set on a resource:
The owner must sign all updates or deletions of the resource.
If the resource is a wallet, the owner must sign signature or transaction requests to the Privy API and is subject to the policies set on the wallet.
Signers enable setting different permissions that different parties can take with a given wallet. To attach a signer to a resource, add a new entry in the additional_signers array with the key quorum ID of your signer. You can then set override_policy_ids that apply to this specific signer. This enables you to set specific policies for certain key quorums over the same wallet.
