NAME
       lightning-waitsendpay - Command for sending a payment via a route

SYNOPSIS
       waitsendpay payment_hash	[timeout] [partid]

DESCRIPTION
       The  waitsendpay	RPC command polls or waits for the status of an	outgo-
       ing payment that	was initiated by a previous sendpay invocation.

       The partid argument must	match that of the sendpay command.

       Optionally the client may provide a timeout, an integer in seconds, for
       this  RPC  command  to return. If the timeout is	provided and the given
       amount of time passes without the payment definitely succeeding or def-
       initely	failing,  this	command	returns	with a 200 error code (payment
       still in	progress). If timeout is not provided this call	will wait  in-
       definitely.

       Indicating  a timeout of	0 effectively makes this call a	pollable query
       of the status of	the payment.

       If the payment completed	with success, this command returns  with  suc-
       cess.  Otherwise,  if  the payment completed with failure, this command
       returns an error.

RETURN VALUE
       On success, an object similar to	the output of listsendpays will	be re-
       turned.	This  object will have a status	field that is the string "com-
       plete".

       On error, and even if the error occurred	from a node other than the fi-
       nal destination,	the route table	will no	longer be updated. Use the ex-
       clude parameter of the getroute command to ignore the failing route.

       The following error codes may occur:

	      o	     -1: Catchall nonspecific error.

	      o	     200: Timed	out before the payment could complete.

	      o	     202: Unparseable onion reply. The data field of the error
		     will  have	 an onionreply field, a	hex string representa-
		     tion of the raw onion reply.

	      o	     203: Permanent failure at destination. The	data field  of
		     the error will be routing failure object.

	      o	     204:  Failure  along  route; retry	a different route. The
		     data field	of the error will be routing failure object.

	      o	     208: A payment for	payment_hash was never made and	 there
		     is	nothing	to wait	for.

	      o	     209: The payment already failed, but the reason for fail-
		     ure was not stored. This should only occur	when  querying
		     failed payments on	very old databases.

       A routing failure object	has the	fields below:

	      o	     erring_index:  The	index of the node along	the route that
		     reported the error. 0 for the local node, 1 for the first
		     hop, and so on.

	      o	     erring_node:  The hex string of the pubkey	id of the node
		     that reported the error.

	      o	     erring_channel: The short channel ID of the channel  that
		     has  the  error  (or the final channel if the destination
		     raised the	error).

	      o	     erring_direction:	The  direction	 of   traversing   the
		     erring_channel:

	      o	     failcode: The failure code, as per	BOLT #4.

	      o	     failcodename:  The	 human-readable	 name corresponding to
		     failcode, if known.
