Create a free BitGo test account
3.1. Create a BitGo test organization and use it's
Enterprise ID
populateBITGO_ENTERPRISE
in.env
and.env.test
.3.2. Create an BitGo access token and use it to populate

Ethereum Fee Address

- You will get an error that looks something like:
insufficient funds in fee address: 0xabc123def456ghi789abc123def456ghi789abc1
- Copy that address
-
Then on the Kovan network, transfer some Ether to your
fee address
(eg. 0.5 Ether will be enough for a day of regular playing around with this CLI) -
Next create a wallet for testing and local tranaactions using the following command:
node src/index.js wallet create -l '<WHATEVER NAME YOU LIKE>'
-
Then using the output under Wallet:
id
: use this to populateBITGO_WALLET_ID
in.env
and.env.test
-
And lastly using the output under MERGED User Keychain Data:
private key
: use this to populateBITGO_WALLET_PRV
in.env
and.env.test
address
: transfer some Ether to this address
You can use the following command to check that the wallet balance after your transfer:
node src/index.js wallet view '<WALLET ID>'
