import multisig

Use import when a Cosmos multisig already exists and you want to manage it from Snow-Fall.

Importing a multisig does not move funds. It adds the multisig configuration to the dashboard so your team can prepare, sign, finalize, and broadcast transactions.

When to import

Import an existing multisig when:

the multisig was created outside Snow-Fall;

the multisig is already funded;

the team already uses the address;

you want Snow-Fall to coordinate future transactions.

Required information

You will usually need:

chain name and chain ID;

multisig address;

threshold;

signer addresses;

signer public keys;

labels for each signer.

Public keys are important because Cosmos multisig finalization needs the signer keyset to reconstruct the multisig transaction correctly.

Step-by-step

1. Open the Cosmos workspace.

2. Go to multisigs.

3. Choose import multisig.

4. Select the correct chain.

5. Enter the multisig address.

6. Enter the threshold.

7. Add signer addresses and public keys.

8. Review the full configuration.

9. Save.

Review checklist

Before creating transactions from an imported multisig, verify:

the imported address is exactly correct;

the chain is correct;

the threshold is correct;

all expected signers are present;

no unexpected signer has been added;

public keys match the signers.

Common mistakes

The most common import issues are:

wrong chain selected;

missing public key;

signer address copied from another chain prefix;

wrong threshold;

signer order mismatch in legacy multisig flows.

If anything looks uncertain, stop and verify with another team member before using the multisig.
