Send Signed Transaction with the Flow CLI

The Flow CLI provides a command to send signed transactions to any Flow Access API.

Use this functionality in the following order:

1. Use the build command to build the transaction.
2. Use the sign command to sign with each account specified in the build process.
3. Use this command (send-signed) to submit the signed transaction to the Flow network.

flow transactions send-signed <signed transaction filename>

Example Usage

> flow transactions send-signed ./signed.rlp
