Sudo

Calls

---

set_key

Authenticates the current sudo key and sets the given AccountId (new) as the new sudo key.

The dispatch origin for this call must be Signed.

## Complexity - O(1).

Attributes

Name	Type
new	AccountIdLookupOf<T>

Python

call = substrate.compose_call(
    'Sudo', 'set_key', {
    'new': {
        'Address20': '[u8; 20]',
        'Address32': '[u8; 32]',
        'Id': 'AccountId',
        'Index': 'u32',
        'Raw': 'Bytes',
    },
}
)

---

sudo

Authenticates the sudo key and dispatches a function call with Root origin.

The dispatch origin for this call must be Signed.

## Complexity - O(1).

Attributes

Name	Type
call	Box<<T as Config>::RuntimeCall>

Python

call = substrate.compose_call(
    'Sudo', 'sudo', {'call': 'Call'}
)

---

sudo_as

Authenticates the sudo key and dispatches a function call with Signed origin from a given account.

The dispatch origin for this call must be Signed.

## Complexity - O(1).

Attributes

Name	Type
who	AccountIdLookupOf<T>
call	Box<<T as Config>::RuntimeCall>

Python

call = substrate.compose_call(
    'Sudo', 'sudo_as', {
    'call': 'Call',
    'who': {
        'Address20': '[u8; 20]',
        'Address32': '[u8; 32]',
        'Id': 'AccountId',
        'Index': 'u32',
        'Raw': 'Bytes',
    },
}
)

---

sudo_unchecked_weight

Authenticates the sudo key and dispatches a function call with Root origin. This function does not check the weight of the call, and instead allows the Sudo user to specify the weight of the call.

The dispatch origin for this call must be Signed.

## Complexity - O(1).

Attributes

Name	Type
call	Box<<T as Config>::RuntimeCall>
weight	Weight

Python

call = substrate.compose_call(
    'Sudo', 'sudo_unchecked_weight', {
    'call': 'Call',
    'weight': {
        'proof_size': 'u64',
        'ref_time': 'u64',
    },
}
)
