Use the address book

Manage blockchain addresses your team interacts with by assigning human-readable names, tags, and policy whitelists in the DFNS dashboard.

Create an alias

1. Go to the Address Book page and click 'Create Alias'

   Navigate to the Address Book section in your dashboard (1) and click Create Alias (2).

   
2. Fill in the form and create the alias

   The creation form opens. Add a name, an optional description, and a network + address. You can attach multiple networks and addresses to one alias with Add network (1). When you’re done, click Create (2) and 🔑 sign the action with your passkey.

   
3. Use the alias in a transfer

   Your new entry now appears in the Address Book. When you send funds, open the To field in the transfer modal and search the address book to pick a saved alias instead of pasting a raw address.

   

The alias is created. Use it to send funds to a human-readable address.

Edit an alias

Each entry in the Address Book has an actions menu. Open it and click Edit to open the Edit Alias form. You can update the description and add, change, or remove the networks and addresses attached to the alias. Review the summary of your changes, then click Save and 🔑 sign the action with your passkey.

The alias name is fixed once the alias is created, so it stays read-only in this form. To rename an alias, delete it and create a new one with the name you want.

Delete an alias

In the same actions menu, click Delete and confirm. This removes the address and its alias.
