You can only use this endpoint on the official Hyperliquid public API. It is not available through Chainstack, as the open-source node implementation does not support it yet. See Hyperliquid methods for the full availability breakdown.
This endpoint requires signature authentication. See our comprehensive Authentication via Signatures guide for implementation details.
The userOutcome action manually splits or merges outcome-market shares to convert between quote tokens and Yes/No shares. Outcome markets are binary (Yes/No) prediction markets on Hyperliquid. A single userOutcome action carries exactly one of four operations: splitOutcome, mergeOutcome, mergeQuestion, or negateOutcome.

Parameters

Required parameters

  • action (object, required) — The user outcome action. Set type to "userOutcome" and include exactly one of the following operations:
    • splitOutcome — Split X quote tokens into X Yes and X No shares of an outcome. Fields: outcome (number), amount (string, e.g. "123.0").
    • mergeOutcome — Merge X Yes and X No shares of an outcome into X quote tokens. Fields: outcome (number), amount (string or null, where null means the maximum available).
    • mergeQuestion — Merge X Yes shares from each outcome associated to the same question into X quote tokens. Fields: question (number), amount (string or null, where null means the maximum available).
    • negateOutcome — Convert X No shares from an outcome associated with a question into X Yes shares of every other outcome associated with the question. Fields: question (number), outcome (number), amount (string).
  • nonce (number, required) — Current timestamp in milliseconds (must be recent).
  • signature (object, required) — EIP-712 signature of the action.

Optional parameters

  • expiresAfter (number, optional) — Timestamp in milliseconds after which the request is rejected.

Returns

Returns an object with the action status:
  • status"ok" if the request was processed.
  • response — Contains operation details:
    • type"default".
