By default, sdk.init() makes the wallet picker list every CIP-103 wallet the SDK can discover: browser wallets that announce themselves, plus the SDK’s built-in list of remote wallets. Registering adapters lets you add more wallets (such as WalletConnect or a custom remote wallet) or restrict the

This guide covers the connection lifecycle: initializing the SDK, connecting a wallet, inspecting connection status, restoring a returning user’s session, and disconnecting. All examples use the high-level SDK. For the equivalent low-level calls, see the Provider API . Connection flow A dApp c

The dApp SDK emits events so your UI can stay in sync with the wallet’s state. Subscribe with the on* functions and unsubscribe with the matching off* function. For usage examples, see Handle Events . onStatusChanged(handler) / offStatusChanged(handler) Fires when the connection status o

The dApp SDK emits events so your UI can stay in sync with the wallet’s state. Subscribe with the on* functions and always unsubscribe with the matching off* function when your component unmounts. For the full list of events and their payloads, see the Events reference . React to connection

The Provider API is the low-level interface the dApp SDK is built on. It follows the EIP-1193 request/event pattern and implements CIP-103 . Most dApps should use the high-level SDK . Use the Provider API directly only when building lower-level infrastructure or adapting an existing provider-bas

This section is for wallet authors who want their wallet to be CIP-103 compatible, so it can interoperate with Canton dApps and be listed in the wallet picker the dApp SDK opens on connect(). Choose one or more of the integration paths below. Choose your integration How your wallet connects |

WalletConnect lets mobile and cross-device wallets connect to dApps. Wallets add Canton support through the WalletConnect wallet SDK; dApps enable WalletConnect by registering the WalletConnectAdapter, which is covered in Wallet discovery . Add Canton support to your wallet Follow the officia

Operating a validator on Canton Network comes with specific roles, responsibilities, and expectations. This page clarifies what’s expected of validators versus what the network handles. The Validator’s Role As a validator, you operate a participant node that: • Hosts parties for users and appli

The Canton Foundation (CF) is an independent non-profit organization created in partnership with the Linux Foundation. It governs the Global Synchronizer, the decentralized interoperability and synchronization infrastructure of the Canton Network. Purpose and role The CF provides transparent gov

Connectivity failures prevent your validator from communicating with the synchronizer. The symptoms vary — from outright connection refusals to subtle TLS handshake errors — but the diagnostic approach is consistent. Cannot Connect to Synchronizer If your validator logs show: Request failed

Before an asset can be minted, the Registrar must create an Instrument Configuration. The Instrument Configuration defines the asset and the rules that apply to it. Purpose The Instrument Configuration defines: • The instrument identifier. • Optional external identifiers, such as ISIN or CUSI

The Registry App uses credential-based allowlists to control which parties are permitted to perform specific actions for an asset. This enables issuers to enforce KYC, AML, regulatory, or business-specific requirements while keeping the rules fully configurable for each instrument. Common use case

Supported Cryptographic Schemes And Formats Within Canton, we use the cryptographic primitives of signing, symmetric encryption, and asymmetric encryption, with the following supported cryptographic schemes and formats. For asymmetric signing and encryption, each scheme is divided into a key and a
