Biconomy gasless meta-transactions fails

[Legacy] GitHub Discussions
1

When integrating web3auth with Biconomy (Gasless meta-transactions), we are experiencing errors ( most probably due to proxy[provider] of web3auth), while when we are using metamask or any other wallet like coinbase we do not face any error. here is a sample for explaining above issue. [two method showing error in sample must be work to enable meta-transactions] https://anand-nftically.github.io/gasless-web3auth

Does biconomy.getEthersProvider() exist on biconomy object?

Because I am able to login.

Also refer to https://docs.biconomy.io/sdk/biconomy-sdk-mexa to use biconomy

Looking at the SDK, Biconomy constructor takes constructor(provider: ExternalProvider, options: OptionsType) as input:

import {Biconomy} from '@biconomy/mexa' // version ^3.0.3
const biconomy = new Biconomy(provider: ExternalProvider, options: OptionsType)
(alias) type ExternalProvider = {
isMetaMask?: boolean | undefined;
isStatus?: boolean | undefined;
host?: string | undefined;
path?: string | undefined;
sendAsync?: ((request: {
method: string;
params?: Array<any>;
}, callback: (error: any, response: any) => void) => void) | undefined;
send?: ((request: {
method: string;
params?: Array<any>;
}, callback: (error: any, response: any) => void) => void) | undefined;
request?: ((request: {
method: string;
params?: Array<any>;
}) => Promise<any>) | undefined;
}
import ExternalProvider

export type OptionsType = {
apiKey: string,
debug?: boolean,
strictMode?: boolean,
jsonRpcUrl?: string,
contractAddresses: string[],
};

Looking at the code here, you'll have to use an additional contractAddresses parameter while initializing Biconomy:

const biconomy = new Biconomy(web3auth.provider, {
  apiKey: 'NuSSxYDAx.3de630c2-75c8-4d87-a684-8a66bd1b7117',
  debug: true,
  contractAddresses: ['0x3888b4606f9f12ee2e92f04bb0398172bb91765d'], // smart contract address
})
window.web3biconomy = new Web3(biconomy)

And while making a write operation (involving fee), use this web3biconomy object to initiate the call.

const writeContract = async () => {
if (!provider) {
uiConsole(‘provider not initialized yet’)
return
}
const web3 = window.web3biconomy // <– See this line.
