'The method eth_signTypedData does not exist/is not available'

[caiyundong]

For my practice, we have tried to use infura and quiknode, unluckily both don't implement the eth_signTyped Data, which is available for the MetaMask though. As it is just a wallet but not a node, I have no idea to set the web3's httpprovider.

Our last straw is to use the STARK_KEY_PAIR, which contains the private key, public key as well as the y-coordinate from the metamask. It can be found at the "Right Click of dydx trading webpage after linking the metamask wallet -> Inspection->Application->Local Storage->http://trade.dydx....->" together with the api key credentials.

One thing to note is that for the Stark keys (private key, public key, public y coordinate), there is a need to modify a bit, e.g. "02312321" ->"0x2312321" in your code, otherwise you might meet the private key/public key mismatch problem.

Someone opened an issue with web3.py about this, even though it is actually a dydx issue. One of the web3 maintainers has provided a pretty nice answer, it may shed some light: ethereum/web3.py#2097

Maybe one of the DyDx maintainers can help with a web3 issue to return the favor ; )

@Kenadia Can you provide a solution about this problem?

[bala782]

i met the same problem. when using Ganache node, everything is ok, but using the etherum mainnet, this problem happens, i don't know why。anyone can help?

[Bruhwuh123]

did you guys find a sollution? It seems to be infura not accepting signing, but what node does accept that? a Private one?

When I try to create the stack key, I find this error. Does someone know how to solve it ?

Can I ask what WEB_PROVIDER_URL you are using for ETH mainnet on metamask?

when using Ganache node, I came across even more bug... Is this relevant to locations?

it said

There is no web_provider_url for the metamask as it is a wallet not a node. I fetch the keys from the browser. Cannot figure the way to get them from the API.

[caiyundong]

You can see that there is a "API_KEY_PAIRS" there.

[dyustc]

@caiyundong Thanks. can you sign dydx private APIs successfully via REST with the web browser keys now? I use the following header, but still got unauthorized error.

[dyustc]

@caiyundong I wrote this according to the dydx documentation, but it seems the stark key isn't used here, kind of strange. Anyway, it isn't working.

[caiyundong]

Yes, with the credentials of api key, secret and passphase, the private methods are working well. The stark key is only needed for the placing-the-order and withdraw.

[CNich]

I fetched the keys from the browser as @caiyundong said above and added '0x' to stark keys, and the private endpoints are working except for create_order (haven't tried withdraw yet). I get the error DydxApiError: DydxApiError(status_code=400, response={'errors': [{'msg': 'Invalid signature for order'}]}) . Are my stark keys wrong? How does metamask do the signing?

[caiyundong]

1. For the stark_private_key, stark_public_key, stark_public_key_y_coordinate, you can use "stark_private_key = hex(int("0x"+stark_private_key, base=16))" to convert if it doesn't start with 0x, may not just add 0x at the front.
2. You may check if you have used correct position_id for place_order (position_id = dydx_driver.get_accounts()["accounts"][0]["positionId"])

[CNich]

Ah, my position_id was wrong, I set it to 1 since I saw that in the docs, didn't realize I needed to use my own. Thanks @caiyundong for the help!

[caiyundong]

@CNich exactly same as me, it shows that the documentation is not good enough.

[NumberUn]

Hi all. What I need to do if I have no keys in browser? There are only empty brackets

[caiyundong]

Have you connected the wallet e.g. metamask?

[cfa532]

One thing to note is that for the Stark keys (private key, public key, public y coordinate), there is a need to modify a bit, e.g. "02312321" ->"0x2312321" in your code, otherwise you might meet the private key/public key mismatch problem.

you saved my week!

[oussamabng]

@caiyundong i did everything like u said , but i still have DydxApiError(status_code=400, response={'errors': [{'msg': 'Invalid signature for order'}]}) please help me.

stark_private_key = 'XXX'
STARK_PRIVATE_KEY = hex(int("0x"+stark_private_key, base=16))

account_response = private_client.private.get_account()
position_id = account_response.data['account']['positionId']
print(position_id)

[caiyundong]

You can create a read-only key and send to me ([email protected]). I can give a try. I haven't worked on DYDX for quite a long time. @oussamabng
