Eject a wallet

The eject feature allows a user to construct a private key that can be imported into another wallet manager, such as MetaMask.

Warning: Providing the custodian backup share to the client device puts both MPC shares on a single device, removing the multi-party security benefits of MPC. This operation should only be done for users who want to move off of MPC and into a single private key. Use portal.eject() at your own risk!

Ejecting Your User's Wallets

To eject the private keys for your users' wallets, their two matching backup shares need to be combined. This requires providing the following two shares to portal.eject():

• User Backup Share - Encrypted backup share received from portal.backup().

• Custodian Backup Share - Raw backup share received from the POST /backup webhook.

Here's an example implementation:

Ejecting with customer managed backups

// Fetch the encrypted user backup share from your API.
let encryptedUserBackupShare = try await yourAPI.fetchEncryptedUserBackupShare(
    userId,
    withBackupMethodWithCurve: .Password
)

// Fetch the user's custodian backup share from your API.
let custodianBackupShare = try await yourAPI.fetchCustodianBackupShare(
    userId,
    withBackupMethodWithCurve: .PasswordSECP256k1
)

// Fetch the user's custodian backup share from your API.
let custodianBackupSolanaShare = try await yourAPI.fetchCustodianSolanaBackupShare(
    userId,
    withBackupMethod: .PasswordED25519
)

   let privateKeys = try await portal.ejectPrivateKeys(
      .Password,,
      withCipherText: cipherText,
      andOrganizationBackupShare: custodianBackupShare,
      andOrganizationSolanaBackupShare: custodianBackupSolanaShare
    )
return privateKeys

SECP256K1 is the curve used by Ethereum and ED25519 is the curve used by solana.
