How to change pool settings

Pools are addresses that give us permissions to automatically sell energy for them, and as such there are settings to be configured that can be done both on the TEM website and with the API.

Steps to change settings

Define authentication and pool information:

const API_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY";
const ADDRESS = "YOUR_POOL_ADDRESS";

Set the new parameter/s from the table:

//In this case AWARD_AMOUNT
const AWARD_AMOUNT = 0.85;

Build params and send it:

const params = {
    award_amount: AWARD_AMOUNT,
    address: ADDRESS,
    api_key: API_KEY
};

axios.post(API_URL, params)

Example of how to change pool settings:

Node.js

const axios = require('axios');

const API_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY";
const ADDRESS = "YOUR_POOL_ADDRESS";
const AWARD_AMOUNT = 0.85;
const API_URL = "https://api.tronenergy.market/pool/update";

async function changePoolSettings() {

    // No need for signed_tx

    const params = {
        award_amount: AWARD_AMOUNT,
        address: ADDRESS,
        api_key: API_KEY
    };

    axios.post(API_URL, params)
        .then((res) => {
            console.log("update ok");
            console.log(res.data);
        })
        .catch((error) => {
            console.error("woops, something wrong happened!");
            console.error(error.response?.data);
        });
}

changePoolSettings();
