# Bridge/Swap

Request quotes for crypto transfers with flexible intent methods.

## Requesting a quote

You can request a quote using an existing recipient ID or by passing the settlement details directly in the payload.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Using Recipient ID" %}
{% code title="example.ts" %}

```typescript
const quote = await orda.quote.request({
  fromChain: '1',  // Ethereum
  fromToken: '0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48',  // USDC
  fromAddress: '0xYourAddress',
  intent: {
    method: 'usd',
    value: '100'
  },
  recipientId: 'recipient-id'
});
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Using Inline Settlement" %}
{% code title="example.ts" %}

```typescript
const quote = await orda.quote.request({
  fromChain: '1',
  fromToken: '0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48',
  fromAddress: '0xYourAddress',
  intent: {
    method: 'fromAmount',
    value: '1000000'  // 1 USDC (6 decimals)
  },
  settlementDetails: {
    toChain: '8453',
    toToken: '0x833589fcd6edb6e08f4c7c32d4f71b54bda02913',
    toAddress: '0xRecipientAddress'
  }
});
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

## Intent Methods

Use one of these intent methods to specify the quote intent.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="USD Value" %}

```typescript
{ method: 'usd', value: '100' }  // $100 worth
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="From Amount" %}

```typescript
{ method: 'fromAmount', value: '1000000' }  // Exact input amount
```

The intent value when using `fromAmount` must be in smallest units (e.g. for USDC with 6 decimals: 100000 = 1 USDC)
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="To Amount" %}

```typescript
{ method: 'toAmount', value: '1000000' }  // Exact output amount
```

The intent value when using `toAmount` must be in smallest units (e.g. for USDC with 6 decimals: 100000 = 1 USDC)
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
