Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that you have:
  • An active API key with the necessary write permissions configured for the target environment (Sandbox or Live).
Access to the OpenXSwitch Console with workspace administrator privileges.

​
The Plan

In this guide, we will cover:
  1. Navigating to Tron Gas Manager
  2. Activating the Gas Manager on your workspace
  3. Funding the Gas Manager

​
Step 1: Navigate to Tron Gas Manager

  1. Log into the OpenXSwitch Console.
  2. From the left navigation menu, navigate to Wallet Infrastructure → Settings → Tron Gas Manager.
Tron Gas Manager Setup

​
Step 2: Activate the Gas Manager

  1. Click the Setup Gas Manager button.
  2. A confirmation modal will appear detailing the automated delegation workflow.
  3. Confirm the setup to generate a dedicated TRON wallet specifically assigned to manage workspace gas sponsorship and account activations.

​
Step 3: Fund the Gas Manager

To power automated resource delegation and cover mandatory 1 TRX account activation fees, the dedicated Tron Gas Manager wallet must hold a TRX balance:
  1. Copy the generated Tron Gas Manager wallet address from the console.
  2. Deposit native TRX into the address:
    1. Testnet (Nile): Request testnet TRX via the Nileex TRON Faucet.
    2. Mainnet: Transfer TRX directly to the dedicated wallet address.
  3. Once the deposit is confirmed on-chain, the Tron Gas Manager automatically handles Energy delegation, Bandwidth allocation, and account activation whenever workspace addresses initiate USDT or TRC-20 token transfers.
