Gasless Transfer
Originating from the Gasless section of the REST API documentation, this recipe provides implementation examples for gasless transactions in TypeScript, Go and Python. Developers can use these examples to integrate gasless transactions into their applications.
ℹ️
Gasless transactions are currently not supported through TonConnect.
Swagger documentation for Gasless operations can be found here.
