Add and Remove Appointees

Only admins (or the account if no admin has been set) can add appointees. Unlike adding an admin, there is no requirement for an appointee to accept the appointment.

For the list of contracts and functions that can have appointees set, refer to:

Add an Appointee Using EigenLayer CLI​

To add an appointee:

eigenlayer user appointee set [options] with:

  • account-address - Operator address for admin
  • appointee-address - Appointee address to have ability to call specified function granted
  • caller-address - Not required when using --broadcast or the admin using the CLI is the account-address. Must be specified if --output-type is calldata and the admin using the CLI is not the account-address. Set to the address of the admin using the CLI.
  • selector - Function for which to grant appointee ability to call. Use Etherscan to obtain the selector.
  • target-address - Contract address containing function for which appointee is being granted permission to call (for example, AllocationManager). The contract addresses are published in the core contracts repository.

Remove an Appointee Using EigenLayer CLI​

To remove an appointee:

eigenlayer user appointee remove [options]

With the same options as adding an appointee but the permission is being removed instead of granted.
