Delegation scopes

When creating a delegation, you can configure the following scopes to define the delegation's initial authority. Learn how to use delegation scopes.

Spending limit scopes​

ERC-20 periodic scope​

Ensures a per-period limit for ERC-20 token transfers. At the start of each new period, the allowance resets.

Example​

const delegation = createDelegation({
  scope: {
    type: "erc20PeriodTransfer",
    tokenAddress: "0xb4aE654Aca577781Ca1c5DE8FbE60c2F423f37da",
    periodAmount: 1000000000000000000n,
    periodDuration: 86400,
    startDate: 1743763600,
  },
  to: delegateAccount,
  from: delegatorAccount,
});

ERC-20 streaming scope​

Ensures a linear streaming transfer limit for ERC-20 tokens. Token transfers are blocked until the defined start timestamp. At the start, a specified initial amount is released, after which tokens accrue linearly at the configured rate, up to the maximum allowed amount.

Example​

const delegation = createDelegation({
  scope: {
    type: "erc20Streaming",
    tokenAddress: "0xc11F3a8E5C7D16b75c9E2F60d26f5321C6Af5E92",
    amountPerSecond: 100n,
    initialAmount: 1000000n,
    maxAmount: 10000000n,
    startTime: 1703980800,
  },
  to: delegateAccount,
  from: delegatorAccount,
});

ERC-20 transfer scope​

Ensures that ERC-20 token transfers are limited to a predefined maximum amount. This scope is useful for setting simple, fixed transfer limits without any time-based or streaming conditions.

Example​

const delegation = createDelegation({
  scope: {
    type: "erc20TransferAmount",
    tokenAddress: "0xc11F3a8E5C7D16b75c9E2F60d26f5321C6Af5E92",
    maxAmount: 10000n,
  },
  to: delegateAccount,
  from: delegatorAccount,
});

ERC-721 scope​

Limits the delegation to ERC-721 token transfers only.

Example​

const delegation = createDelegation({
  scope: {
    type: "erc721Transfer",
    tokenAddress: "0x3fF528De37cd95b67845C1c55303e7685c72F319",
    tokenId: 1n,
  },
  to: delegateAccount,
  from: delegatorAccount,
});

Native token periodic scope​

Ensures a per-period limit for native token transfers. At the start of each new period, the allowance resets.

Example​

const delegation = createDelegation({
  scope: {
    type: "nativeTokenPeriodTransfer",
    periodAmount: 1000000000000000000n,
    periodDuration: 86400,
    startDate: 1743763600,
  },
  to: delegateAccount,
  from: delegatorAccount,
});

Native token streaming scope​

Ensures a linear streaming transfer limit for native tokens. Token transfers are blocked until the defined start timestamp. At the start, a specified initial amount is released, after which tokens accrue linearly at the configured rate, up to the maximum allowed amount.

Example​

const delegation = createDelegation({
  scope: {
    type: "nativeTokenStreaming",
    amountPerSecond: 100n,
    initialAmount: 1000000n,
    maxAmount: 10000000n,
    startTime: 1703980800,
  },
  to: delegateAccount,
  from: delegatorAccount,
});

Native token transfer scope​

Ensures that native token transfers are limited to a predefined maximum amount. This scope is useful for setting simple, fixed transfer limits without any time based or streaming conditions.

Example​

const delegation = createDelegation({
  scope: {
    type: "nativeTokenTransferAmount",
    maxAmount: 1000000n,
  },
  to: delegateAccount,
  from: delegatorAccount,
});

Function call scope​

Defines the specific methods, contract addresses, and calldata that are allowed for the delegation.

Example​

This example sets the delegation scope to allow the delegate to call the approve function on the USDC token contract.

const delegation = createDelegation({
  scope: {
    type: "functionCall",
    targets: ["0x1c7D4B196Cb0C7B01d743Fbc6116a902379C7238"], // USDC address on Sepolia.
    selectors: ["approve(address, uint256)"]
  },
  to: delegateAccount,
  from: delegatorAccount,
});

Ownership transfer scope​

Restricts a delegation to ownership transfer calls only.

Example​

const contractAddress = "0x1c7D4B196Cb0C7B01d743Fbc6116a902379C7238"

const delegation = createDelegation({
  scope: {
    type: "ownershipTransfer",
    contractAddress,
  },
  to: delegateAccount,
  from: delegatorAccount,
});
