What is SquadsX

SquadsX is a companion tool that enables users to interact with the Solana ecosystem from the security of their multisig. By using this web extension wallet, users can connect to apps and protocols on Solana that are not directly integrated into the Squads platform.

For app developers oriented information (such as integration) on the SquadsX extension, check out the technical docs here.

Add your SquadsX key

Squads automatically create a key for you that will be used to create transactions inside your Squad. The SquadsX public key will by default only have the "Proposer" permission — it will only be able to create transactions inside your Squad without the ability to approve nor execute them.

1. Once added to your Squad, you will be able to see your Squad in SquadsX and connect it to apps in the Solana ecosystem. Check all the apps compatible with SquadsX here.

If the Fee Relayer is enabled for your Squad, all the SquadsX transaction fees will be paid with the SOL in your vault, up to the spending limit set.

If the Fee Relayer is turned off, the SquadsX public key will have to be top up to initiate transactions.

5. Once approved and executed, the action will be reflected in the dApp.
