Creating payout

POST
/api/public/v1/payouts
This endpoint creates payouts.
It takes a few seconds to build and broadcast a transaction, so please expect some delay before a txId
value appears. We advise polling the GET /api/public/v1/payouts/:id endpoint to monitor both the payout status and the txId.
Destination Tag Requirement for XRP Addresses:
XRP addresses require an additional parameter: a destination tag.
A destination tag functions similarly to a reference number in bank transfers, helping to identify the intended beneficiary of a transaction.
Important Notes:
A destination tag cannot be left blank. Collect this tag from your customers before submitting a payout request to Txn
If end-users do not specify a destination tag, use "0"
by formatting the address as follows:
Warning: If you enter "0"
as the destination tag for a wallet shared by multiple users, e.g. online wallets or exchange platforms, the funds may be permanently lost.
