.SH "NAME"
lightning-txprepare \- Command to prepare to withdraw funds from the internal wallet\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fBtxprepare\fR \fIdestination\fR \fIsatoshi\fR [\fIfeerate\fR] [\fIminconf\fR]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fBtxprepare\fR RPC command creates an unsigned transaction which spends funds from c\-lightning\(cqs internal wallet to the address specified in \fIdestination\fR\&.
.sp
Effectively, it is the first part of a \fBwithdraw\fR command, and uses the same parameters\&. The second part is provided by \fBtxsend\fR\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.sp
On success, an object with attributes \fIunsigned_tx\fR and \fItxid\fR will be returned\&. You need to hand \fItxid\fR to \fBtxsend\fR or \fBtxdiscard\fR, as the inputs of this transaction are reserved until then, or until the daemon restarts\&.
.sp
\fIunsigned_tx\fR represents the raw bitcoin transaction (not yet signed) and \fItxid\fR represent the bitcoin transaction id\&.
.sp
On failure, an error is reported and the transaction is not created\&.
.sp
The following error codes may occur:
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
\-1\&. Catchall nonspecific error\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
301\&. There are not enough funds in the internal wallet (including fees) to create the transaction\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
302\&. The dust limit is not met\&.
.RE
.SH "AUTHOR"
