Not able to send payments using Blockchain API

Question

I have installed the API properly and have cross verified it. I can do the basic functions like generating addresses and interacting with wallet. Now I am using the following code to send a payment:

$my_api_key = 'xxxxx';

$guid='xxxxx';

$firstpassword='xxxx';

$second_password = "xxxx";

$amount = '30000';

$to = '1AQDhKrjvAonjLAUv4PzM9NjGzZZ4HEpU1';

$fee = '2000';

$root_url = 'http://localhost:3000/merchant/'.$guid.'/payment';

$parameters = 'to='.$to.'&amount='.$amount.'&password='.$firstpassword.'&fee='.$fee.'&second_password='.$second_password;

$response = Curl::to($root_url . '?' . $parameters)->get();

return $response;

But it does not work. I get the following error:

error : - error: [object object] the response gives me : {"error":"Unexpected error, please try again"}

I don’t understand what the problem is. How do I solve this?

Answer 1

Try the following code. It should help you solve your problem:

$address = null;

try {

    // Uncomment to send

    // var_dump($Blockchain->Wallet->send($address, "0.001"));

} catch (\Blockchain\Exception\ApiError $e) {

    echo $e->getMessage() . '<br />';

}

// Multi-recipient format

$recipients = array();

$recipients[$address] = "0.001";

try {

    // Uncomment to send

// var_dump($Blockchain->Wallet->sendMany($recipients));

} catch (Blockchain_ApiError $e) {

echo $e->getMessage() . '<br />';

}
