Dumping delayed payout transactions

If you or a mediator require additional information on failed, pending, or closed transactions, run Bisq with the --dumpDelayedPayoutTxs=true command line argument.

The instructions below contain specific commands for each of the major desktop operating systems you can copy and paste into a terminal.

How to run Bisq with a command line argument

Windows

Open PowerShell (search the Start menu for PowerShell).

Then from PowerShell, run the following command to switch to your Bisq application directory:

cd  $home\AppData\Local\Bisq

Then run the following command to run Bisq:

start Bisq.exe --dumpDelayedPayoutTxs=true

macOS

Open a terminal window by searching for Terminal with Spotlight, and then press Enter.

Then run the following command:

/Applications/Bisq.app/Contents/MacOS/Bisq --dumpDelayedPayoutTxs=true

Linux

In a new terminal window, run the following command:

/opt/bisq/bin/Bisq --dumpDelayedPayoutTxs=true

Where to find the delayed payout files

Shortly after running one of the commands above, you will find 3 newly-created files in your Bisq data directory:

1. delayed_payout_txs_closed.json
2. delayed_payout_txs_pending.json
3. delayed_payout_txs_failed.json

The location of your data directory depends on what operating system you're using:

Windows

Using PowerShell:

$home\AppData\Roaming\Bisq\

Using cmd:

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Bisq\

macOS

/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Bisq/

This folder could be hidden and not normally accessible on Macs, check the documentation by Apple to see how to be able to work with it.

Linux

/home/<username>/.local/share/Bisq/
