Returns the msg.sender of the L1->L2 transaction as the address of the contract that initiated the transaction.

More info

  1. During a normal transaction, if contract A calls contract B, the msg.sender is A.
  2. During L1->L2 communication, if an EOA X calls contract B, the msg.sender is X.
  3. During L1->L2 communication, if a contract A calls contract B, the msg.sender is applyL1ToL2Alias(A).

Inputs

ParameterTypeDescription
addressstringContract address.
export function applyL1ToL2Alias(address: string): string;

Example

const l1ContractAddress = "0x702942B8205E5dEdCD3374E5f4419843adA76Eeb";
