Events

ArConnect supports several custom events to enable developers to watch the extension from inside of their applications.

Arweave Wallet Loaded

Triggers when the ArConnect global object (window.arweaveWallet) is injected into the page. This can be useful when executing functions on page load.

window.addEventListener("arweaveWalletLoaded", () => {  /** Handle ArConnect load event **/});

Wallet Switched

Triggers when the user switches their wallet in the ArConnect extension popup.

window.addEventListener("walletSwitch", (e) => {  const newAddress = e.detail.address;  /** Handle wallet switch **/});

Requires the ACCESS_ADDRESS and the ACCESS_ALL_ADDRESSES permissions.
