await API.send.payoutStakers(AVN_RELAYER, previousEra)
important

This operation uses a relayer account that the sender authorizes to submit the transfer transaction. You can learn more about relayers HERE.

You can get the AVN_GATEWAY_URL and AVN_RELAYER here.

const AVN_API = require("avn-api");
const AVN_GATEWAY_URL = "<endpoint_url>";
const API = new AVN_API(AVN_GATEWAY_URL);

const AVN_RELAYER = "5Fb...yTh";

async function main() {
await API.init();

// Get the current era
let era = await API.query.getActiveEra();
let previousEra = era - 1;

let result = await API.send.payoutStakers(AVN_RELAYER, previousEra)
// Returns a request id
console.log(result);
}

(async () => {
await main();
})();

You have now successfully submitted a transaction to the AVN.
