Lock borrow bids (auction)

POST 

/v1/actions/term/bid

AUCTION BORROW — step 1 of 2. Build the lockBids transaction that submits sealed borrow bids (escrowing collateral) to the repo's active TermAuctionBidLocker. Reveal them via /v1/actions/term/reveal-bids.

Term Finance is a fixed-rate tri-party-repo lender (NOT a Morpho Blue fork) with two lend surfaces:

  • Secondary order book (RepoTokenLinkedList): buy/sell repo tokens continuously. LEND (buy a repo token) routes through the standard lending action /v1/actions/lending/deposit for a TERM_FINANCE_<id> market. List/cancel your own repo tokens with /v1/actions/term/list · /unlist, and read your listings + auction submissions from the unified /v1/data/lending/orders.
  • Primary auctions (sealed-bid): submit a lend offer or borrow bid, then reveal it. The endpoints in this section (/v1/actions/term/*) build those transactions.

Servicing (repay / redeem / collateral) always uses the standard lending actions: repay · withdraw · deposit (collateral leg).

Sealed commitments: offerPriceHash / bidPriceHash = keccak(price, nonce) are computed client-side so the server never sees your secret price/nonce before reveal.

Plain-text reference — POST /v1/actions/term/bid

FieldTypeDescription
successTrue
dataobjectInformational data (quotes, simulation results, etc.)
actionsobjectTransaction calldata and approvals. Null for quote-only responses (no account provided).
actions.transactionsobject[]Pre-trade setup transactions (e.g. e-mode switch, collateral enable). Execute these before the main swap. Empty when no setup is needed.
actions.transactions[].tostringTarget contract address
actions.transactions[].datastringEncoded calldata
actions.transactions[].valuestringETH value to send with the transaction
actions.transactions[].descriptionstringHuman-readable label. For alternatives, this is the aggregator name (e.g. "Paraswap"). For transactions, describes the setup action (e.g. "Switch e-mode to 1").
actions.alternativesobject[]DEX aggregator swap transactions sorted by best output (descending). Each entry's description is the aggregator name. The client should pick one to execute. Present on loop action endpoints.
actions.alternatives[].tostringTarget contract address
actions.alternatives[].datastringEncoded calldata
actions.alternatives[].valuestringETH value to send with the transaction
actions.alternatives[].descriptionstringHuman-readable label. For alternatives, this is the aggregator name (e.g. "Paraswap"). For transactions, describes the setup action (e.g. "Switch e-mode to 1").
actions.permissionsobject[]Approval/delegation transactions that must execute before both transactions and alternatives. Includes ERC20 allowances (targeting the composer contract) and lender borrow/withdrawal delegations (targeting the lending protocol contract directly). Filtered against on-chain state so only missing approvals are returned. Null when no approvals are needed.
actions.permissions[].tostringTarget contract address
actions.permissions[].datastringEncoded calldata
actions.permissions[].valuestringETH value
actions.permissions[].descriptionstringHuman-readable description of the approval (e.g. "Approve borrow for AAVE_V3", "Approve ERC20")
actions.permissions[].spenderstringERC-20 approve spender (x-chain permissions). Match it against the selected quote's approvalTarget — several bridges can share one spender, so do not match by description.
