Title: Remove obsolete RPC function "sendfrom" from the documentation
Post by: citb0in on January 14, 2024, 07:29:43 PM
To the developers, providers or supporters of the bitcoin core documentation at the URL:

https://developer.bitcoin.org/examples/transactions.html

[...]
To spend a specific UTXO, you could use the sendfrom RPC instead.

I stumbled over the mentioned function and as far as I can tell, this function was removed several years ago and is deprecated.

I could not find any information in the current Bitcoin core versions, and my own tests have shown that this command is not known. Presumably this has not been removed from the documentation, or an updated note has been written about it.

If this is not known, I would like to kindly point it out. If I am wrong and the explanation is to be found elsewhere, please correct me.

Thank you very much for your attention.

Issues in the developer documentation such as this should be reported to developer.bitcoin.org's GitHub repository.
But use the search feature in the issues page first for any possible duplicate issue.

Here's the link: https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/developer.bitcoin.org (https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/developer.bitcoin.org)

I had looked for one on their website and found nothing suitable for reporting. But thanks for the hint, I'll have a look where I can find it on the github repository. Thank you for the suggestion.

Have a nice day
