Escrows

REST operate methods — build unsigned XDR, sign with your wallet, then send.

Operate methods call Core build endpoints. Each returns an unsigned XDR. You sign it, then submit with sendTransaction.

Import from @trustless-work/escrow-js or @trustless-work/escrow-js/rest.

Methods

Method	Action
deployEscrow	Create escrow (unsignedXdr + predicted contractId)
fundEscrow	Fund
updateEscrow	Update properties
changeMilestoneStatus	Status / evidence (batch)
approveMilestones	Approve (batch)
approveAndReleaseMilestones	Approve + release (multi-release)
manageMilestones	Add / edit milestones
releaseFunds	Release
startDispute	Start dispute
resolveDispute	Resolve dispute (distributions)
withdrawRemainingFunds	Withdraw remaining

Most operate methods take (payload, type) where type is "single-release" | "multi-release". Multi-only helpers (approveAndReleaseMilestones, releaseMilestones, disputeMilestones) omit the type argument.

Pattern

const { unsignedXdr } = await client.rest.fundEscrow(payload, "single-release");
const signedXdr = await signWithWallet(unsignedXdr);
const result = await client.rest.sendTransaction(signedXdr);

Response types

Step	Type
Deploy build	DeployEscrowResponse → { unsignedXdr, txHash, contractId }
Other builds	BuildTransactionResponse → { unsignedXdr, txHash }
Submit	SendTransactionResponse
