## Execute Rune Etch Order - Request

Once you have

* [created your Rune Etch order ](https://docs.xverse.app/api/runes/etch-rune/create-rune-etch-order)amd received your `orderID`
* funded your Rune Etch order and sent the required `fundAmount` to the `fundAddress`   

-> you can call the Execute Etch Order endpoint, using the `orderID` as path parameter 

## Execute Rune Etch Order - Response

A successful create Execute Etch request will:

1. Return the `fundTransactionId` to your app, confirming that the funding transaction required to execute your order was detected. 
2. Prompt the Xverse API to process the Etch Order. Its Rune Etch service uses a two-phase commit/reveal procedure to process your order and etch the rune:
   * The funding transaction for the order also acts as a *commit* transaction: it contains a taproot output committing to a script containing the Rune to etch (and optionally the inscription content, if you chose to link an inscription with either `inscriptionDetails` or `delegateInscriptionId`)
   * **Once the commit transaction has reached 6 block confirmations**, the Rune Etch service will craft & broadcast a reveal transaction, which etches the rune (and optionally reveals your linked inscription). The reveal transaction is broadcast at the desired `feeRate` specified in the request, and signed with the funding address for the order. This mechanism protects your rune etching from mempool detection and front-running.

## Next Step -> Monitor Rune Etch Order

Once you've sent the required amount to execute your order, you can call the [Monitor Mint Order](https://docs.xverse.app/api/runes/mint-rune/monitor-rune-mint-order) endpoint to track the status.
