JSON Answer Formats

Console prints JSON for both successful and failed commands.

Successful responses include success: true:

{
  "success": true,
  "version": "3.1.0",
  "network": "testnet"
}

Failed responses include success: false and an error message:

{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Account is already a delegate"
}

Exact fields depend on the command and on the current ADAMANT Node API response.

Account

adm account new returns local account credentials:

{
  "success": true,
  "account": {
    "address": "U123456789",
    "passphrase": "example passphrase generated locally",
    "publicKey": "example-public-key",
    "privateKey": "example-private-key"
  }
}

The passphrase and private key are sensitive. Do not share or log real values.

Client

adm client version returns Console metadata and effective local configuration metadata:

{
  "success": true,
  "version": "3.1.0",
  "config": "/home/adamant/.adm/config.jsonc",
  "network": "testnet",
  "account": "Not set"
}

Read Commands

Read commands return the object or list from the node under a command-specific field:

Command	Main field
adm get address <address>	account
adm get block <blockId>	block
adm get blocks <query>	blocks
adm get delegate <delegate>	delegate
adm get message <transactionId>	transaction
adm get transaction <transactionId>	transaction
adm get transactions <query>	transactions and count
adm get chats <address>	chats
adm get chat <ownAddress> <partnerAddress>	messages or transactions

Example:

{
  "success": true,
  "account": {
    "address": "U123456789",
    "balance": "100000000",
    "publicKey": "example-public-key"
  }
}

Node Commands

Node commands return node status data:

Command	Main field
adm node height	height
adm node version	version and commit
adm node status	Node, network, loader, and WebSocket status fields

Send, Delegate, and Vote Commands

Transaction-producing commands return transaction identifiers or transaction objects depending on the underlying adamant-api result:

Command	Typical main field
adm send tokens <address> <amount>	transactionId
adm send message <address> <text> [amount]	transactionId
adm send rich <address> <json>	transactionId
adm send signal <address> <json>	transactionId
adm delegate new <username>	transaction or delegate account data
adm vote for <delegates...>	transaction

Always inspect success and error fields before trusting command output in scripts.
