# stx\_getAddresses

Request the Bitcoin and Stacks addresses for the active account of the user's wallet, using the SIP-030 method name.

## Method name

`stx_getAddresses`

`stx_getAddresses` is the [SIP-030](https://github.com/stacksgov/sips/blob/main/sips/sip-030/sip-030-wallet-interface.md) name for [`getAddresses`](/developers/methods/getaddresses.md). Leather runs both through the same connection flow and returns the same response shape, so the guidance on the `getAddresses` page applies here too: every call opens a connection prompt, and addresses must be read by `symbol` and `type`, never by index.

Unlike `getAddresses`, it takes no `chains` parameter. It always requests both Bitcoin and Stacks addresses.

## **Parameters**

| Parameter             | Description                                                                                                                                              | Required | Type      |
| --------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------- | --------- |
| `network`             | Network identifier                                                                                                                                       | ❌        | `string`  |
| `allowPolicyAccounts` | Currently has no effect: Leather offers multisig vaults on every request. See [Multisig accounts](/developers/methods/getaddresses.md#multisig-accounts) | ❌        | `boolean` |

## **Example request**

```typescript
try {
  const response = await window.LeatherProvider.request("stx_getAddresses");

  const stxAddress = response.result.addresses.find(
    (address) => address.symbol === "STX"
  );

  console.log("Stacks address:", stxAddress?.address);
} catch (error) {
  console.log("Request error:", error);
}
```
