I have add new chain to current web3auth and call function to switch chain. After I switched chain, I call web3.provider to get new provider of switched chain. The web3.provider not updated for me to refresh the provider

  • SDK Version: @web3auth/no-modal": "^7.3.1,
  • Platform: Nextjs

add and switch chain

web3auth?.provider // return chainId 0x5
const newChain = {
      chainId: "0x1",
      rpcTarget: "https://rpc.ankr.com/eth",
      displayName: "Ethereum Mainnet",
      blockExplorer: "https://goerli.etherscan.io",
      ticker: "ETH",
      tickerName: "Ethereum",
      chainNamespace: CHAIN_NAMESPACES.EIP155,
    };
    await web3auth?.addChain(newChain);
    await web3auth?.switchChain({ chainId: "0x1" });

after switch chain, I get the provider and it doesn’t updated the provider with new chainId for me

web3auth?.provider // still response chainId 0x5

@phuochungdn1999 Welcome Aboard!

The switchchain issue is fixed in latest V8 and Wagmi v6 version.

You may refer to this thread for the usage(if required):

I am connecting to Web3Auth with Google account. I am using this to change the network

  const { pendingChainId, switchNetwork, status } = useSwitchNetwork();
      switchNetwork(chainId);

but the chain not change after the switchChain success

  const { chain } = useNetwork(); // this is not updated to the chain called in the switchchain

version I use

"viem": "^1.16.6",
"wagmi": "^1.4.5"
"@web3auth/no-modal": "^7.3.1",
