LIGHTNING-NOTIFI...-SENDPAY_SUCCESS(7)

💖 sendpay_success (a.k.a. the LIGHTNING-NOTIFI...-SENDPAY_SUCCESS(7) page)

okay so bestie, you found the page 🎀 this one is all about sendpay_success — the little notification that shows up and is like "hey girl, your payment ATE 💅". it lives in section 7 of the Core Lightning manual, and yes the man name is LIGHTNING-NOTIFI...-SENDPAY_SUCCESS because apparently naming things is hard 😭

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

• created_index (u64) — 1-based index indicating order this payment was created in. (added v23.11)
• id (u64) — old synonym for created_index. it's giving legacy, but it's still here 🫶

• groupid (u64) — grouping key for multiple attempts on the same payment.
• amount_sent_msat (msat) — the total amount sent including fees.
