Create accounts and send XRP
Create an account on the XRPL Testnet and transfer XRP between two accounts.

This lesson shows how to:
- Create accounts on the Testnet, funded with 930 test XRP with no actual value.
- Retrieve the accounts from seed values.
- Transfer XRP between accounts.
Try editing some code: get-accounts-send-xrp.js
The interactive code example below can be used with any XRP Ledger network: Testnet, Devnet, or Mainnet. When building on your own, you can update the code to choose different or additional XRP ledger networks.Open the Token Test Harness and get test accounts:
- Open the code sandbox.
- Choose Testnet.
- ClickGet New Standby Account.
- ClickGet New Operational Account.
- Copy and paste theSeedsfield in a persistent location, such as a Notepad, so that you can reuse the accounts after reloading the form.
You can transfer XRP between your new accounts. Each account has its own fields and buttons.
To transfer XRP between accounts:
- Enter theAmountof XRP to send.
- Enter theDestinationaccount (for example, copy and paste the OperationalAccount Fieldto the StandbyDestinationfield).
- ClickSend XRP>to transfer XRP from the standby account to the operational account, or<Send XRPto transfer XRP from the operational account to the standby account.
JavaScript code walkthrough: get-accounts-send-xrp.js
This example can be used with any XRP Ledger network: Testnet, Devnet, or Mainnet. You can update the code to choose different or additional XRP Ledger networks.The getNet() function uses brute force if statements to check the radio button values, set the selected network instance and return the URI.
The getAccount() function starts by getting the selected ledger with getNet().
Instantiate a client.
Then use the results variable to capture progress information.
Reporting the results variable to the results HTML field.
Connect to the server.
Create and fund a test account wallet.
Get the current XRP balance for the account, and if this is a standby account, populate the standby account fields.
Otherwise, populate the operational account fields.
Insert the seed values for both accounts as they are created to the Seeds field as a convenience. You can copy the values and store them offline. When you reload this form or another in this tutorial, copy and paste them into the Seeds field to retrieve the accounts with the getAccountsFromSeeds() function.
Define Form Fields
Throughout the code, we use a JavaScript function document.getElementById(), which is used to target an HTML element by it’s CSS ID. We use these functions to set and get values in the HTML form fields of the Token Test Harness. To preserve the legibility of the code, we’ve defined some constants to replace these function calls.
// *** Define HTML Form Fields **
const xls = document.getElementById("xls")
const tn = document.getElementById("tn")
const dn = document.getElementById("dn")
const standbyResultField = document.getElementById('standbyResultField');
const operationalResultsField = document.getElementById('operationalResultField');
const standbyAccountField = document.getElementById('standbyAccountField');
const standbyPubKeyField = document.getElementById('standbyPubKeyField');
const standbyPrivKeyField = document.getElementById('standbyPrivKeyField');
const standbyBalanceField = document.getElementById('standbyBalanceField');
const standbySeedField = document.getElementById('standbySeedField');
const operationalAccountField = document.getElementById('operationalAccountField');
const operationalPubKeyField = document.getElementById('operationalPubKeyField');
const operationalPrivKeyField = document.getElementById('operationalPrivKeyField');
const operationalSeedField = document.getElementById('operationalSeedField');
const operationalBalanceField = document.getElementById('operationalBalanceField');

getAccountsFromSeeds()
Connect to the selected network.
Parse the Seeds field.
Get the standby_wallet based on the seed in the first line and get the operational_wallet based on the seed in the second line.
Get the current XRP balances for the accounts.
Populate the fields for the standby accounts.
Populate the fields for the operational accounts.
Disconnect from the XRP Ledger.

sendXRP()
Connect to your selected ledger.
Begin preparing the transaction. This is a Payment transaction from the standby wallet to the operational wallet.
ThePaymenttransaction expects the XRP to be expressed in drops, or 1/millionth of an XRP.
You can use the xrpToDrops utility to convert the send amount for you (which beats having to type an extra 6 zeroes to send 1 XRP).
Sign the prepared transaction.
Submit the transaction and wait for the results.
Request the balance changes caused by the transaction and report the results.
Disconnect from the XRP Ledger.

Reciprocal transactions: oPsendXRP()
