Export your private key

Reveal and download your wallet secret to self-custody, the recommended step before relying on mainnet.

Your wallet's secret key controls its funds on mainnet and testnet. Export it to move funds out, import the account into another wallet, or back it up, the recommended step before you put real value on mainnet.

Open the wallet panel in the IDE header and choose Export private key.

How it works#

Confirm

Type EXPORT to confirm. If your account has a password, re-enter it.

Reveal once

The secret (S…) is decrypted on the server, sent to your browser once, and shown in a copy-once dialog. It is not stored in the page after you close it.

Copy or download

Copy it to a password manager, or download a keypair file. Store it the way you would any private key.

Anyone with this key controls your funds

Treat the secret key like cash. Never paste it into a website, never share it, and never commit it to code. WebSoroban shows it once and writes an audit log entry (time + IP) every time it's exported, it never logs the key itself.

After exporting#

Import the S… secret into Freighter, xBull, Albedo, Lobstr, or Hana to fully self-custody. On mainnet you can then connect that wallet and sign in the browser, so your key never touches our servers.
