# Get next chain signature

> Returns the next signature in a multi-step chain, for swaps needing more than one (e.g. permit + bridge).

- only needed when [Get token approval data](/api-reference/on-chain-dex-or-bridge/get-token-approval-data) returned a signature of type `CHAINED`
- sign the returned data, post it back, repeat until `isComplete` is true

  - name: Private and Standard Swaps
    description: >-
      CEX swaps in two modes, sharing the same endpoints — pick one with the
      `types` parameter.


      - `types=standard` — direct single-leg swap. Fastest, no privacy hop.

      - `types=private` — two legs through a privacy bridge, so deposit and
      payout are not linkable on-chain. Adds `anonymous`, `useXmr`,
      `rotatePayoutWallets` and the `inLeg*` / `outLeg*` filters.


      Flow: [Get tokens](/api-reference/private-and-standard-swaps/get-tokens)
      with `hasCex=true` → [Get
      quotes](/api-reference/private-and-standard-swaps/get-quotes) → [Create
      exchange](/api-reference/private-and-standard-swaps/create-exchange) →
      [track the
      order](/api-reference/private-and-standard-swaps/get-order-details).
      `markup` works in both modes.
  - name: Private Send
    description: >-
      Send a token to another wallet privately — same token in and out, with no
      on-chain link between the two addresses.


      - find eligible tokens with [Get
      tokens](/api-reference/private-send/get-tokens) and `hasSelfPrivate=true`

      - quote with Get private send quote, then create with Create private send
      order

      - you can also stay on the main endpoints with a private same-token
      `quoteId`


      See the [Private send](/docs/v2/private-send) guide.
  - name: Multi-Exchange
    description: >-
      Create and track a group of swaps sharing one `multiId`.


      - post the orders straight to Create multi exchange — there is no quote
      step and no `quoteId`

      - Get multi quotes is optional, for showing rates first

      - each order gets its own deposit address; poll [Get batch
      status](/api-reference/multi-exchange/get-batch-status) for every leg

      - CEX standard and private only — no DEX in a batch


      To fund the whole group in one transaction, see Bundler SOL or Bundler
      EVM. See the [multi-swap
      flow](https://docs.houdiniswap.com/developer-hub/swap-flows/multi-swap)
      for the full sequence.
  - name: Bundler SOL
    description: >-
      Fund a whole multi-exchange group with one Solana batch transfer.


      - one call — Get batch transaction returns the transaction to sign and
      broadcast

      - up to 10 deposits per batch; every order must send the same token

      - find batchable tokens with [Get
      tokens](/api-reference/multi-exchange/get-tokens) and `hasBundler=true`

      - nothing to submit back afterwards — retry and recovery are EVM-only


      See the [multi-swap
      flow](https://docs.houdiniswap.com/developer-hub/swap-flows/multi-swap)
      for the full sequence.
  - name: Bundler EVM
    description: >-
      Fund a whole multi-exchange group with one ERC-4337 UserOperation,
      submitted through the bundler.


      - Ethereum, Base and BNB Smart Chain only; other EVM chains are rejected

      - up to 20 legs per batch; every order must send the same source token

      - find batchable tokens with [Get
      tokens](/api-reference/multi-exchange/get-tokens) and `hasBundler=true`

      - build the UserOp, then submit the signed result

      - if a bundle fails: retry within 30 minutes, or recover stuck assets


      See the [multi-swap
      flow](https://docs.houdiniswap.com/developer-hub/swap-flows/multi-swap)
      for the full sequence.
  - name: On-chain DEX or Bridge
    description: >-
      On-chain swaps signed and funded from the user's own wallet.


      Flow: [Get tokens](/api-reference/on-chain-dex-or-bridge/get-tokens) with
      `hasDex=true` → [Get
      quotes](/api-reference/on-chain-dex-or-bridge/get-quotes) with `types=dex`
      → [Get token approval
      data](/api-reference/on-chain-dex-or-bridge/get-token-approval-data) →
      send it and poll [Check token
      allowance](/api-reference/on-chain-dex-or-bridge/check-token-allowance) →
      [Get next chain
      signature](/api-reference/on-chain-dex-or-bridge/get-next-chain-signature)
      → [Create exchange](/api-reference/on-chain-dex-or-bridge/create-exchange)
      → [Confirm DEX
      transaction](/api-reference/on-chain-dex-or-bridge/confirm-dex-transaction)
      → [track the
      order](/api-reference/on-chain-dex-or-bridge/get-order-details).


      - `slippage` applies to DEX only

      section above.

        This is the x402 payment protocol, not the normal error format, so there
        is no `code` or `message` to branch on. What to pay is always in the
        `payment-required` response header, in both cases: base64-encoded JSON
        whose `accepts[]` entries each carry the `network`, the `asset` to pay
        in, the `amount`, and the `payTo` address, alongside `maxTimeoutSeconds`
        and the x402 `scheme`.


        Sending `Authorization` skips the payment flow, so a 402 only reaches
        callers paying per request. An `apiKey` query param also skips it but is
        not a credential — those requests fail with `401
        INVALID_API_CREDENTIALS`.
