# Send zk Transaction

This scenario is mainly used to create zk-contract or update zk-contracts.

## Update zk contract

This method is use to sign and broadcast zk transaction.

```typescript
type SendTransactionHash = {
  hash: string;
};

type SignedZkappCommand = {
  signedData: string; // results of JSON.stringify( signZkappCommand().data )
};

type SendZkTransactionResult = SendTransactionResult | SignedZkappCommand

interface ProviderError extends Error {
    message: string;
    code: number;
    data?: unknown;
}

interface SendTransactionArgs {
    readonly onlySign?: boolean; // auro-extension-wallet support from V2.2.16. 
    readonly nonce?: number; // auro-extension-wallet support from V2.3.0. 
    readonly transaction: string | object;
    readonly feePayer?: {
        readonly fee?: number;
        readonly memo?: string;
    };
}

const updateResult: SendZkTransactionResult| ProviderError= await window.mina?
    .sendTransaction({
      onlySign: onlySign, // only sign zkCommond, not broadcast.
      transaction: transactionJSON, // this is zk commond, create by zkApp.
      feePayer: { // option.
        fee: fee,
        memo: memo
      },
    });

console.log(updateResult);
```

{% hint style="info" %}
Here is an demo of update a zk contract. To create a zkApp contract, you need to use [o1js](https://www.npmjs.com/package/o1js) to sign first, then use Auro Wallet to sign the result of o1js signed. The created zkApp contract demo is [here](https://github.com/aurowallet/test-zkapp/blob/feature/zk/ui/src/components/HomeComponents/SignTransactionBox.tsx#L263).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.aurowallet.com/general/howto/send-zk-transaction.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
