Create a simulation draft
Store a Simulator setup (one call or a multi-call bundle, including state overrides, funded balances, and edited contract source) as a draft and receive an ID for a shareable link. Opening the link only prefills the Simulator form; nothing runs until the recipient clicks Simulate.
Put the returned resource_id in a dashboard link:
https://dashboard.tenderly.co/simulator/new?draftId={resource_id}
Visibility
- shared: false (default): the draft is scoped to the project in the URL. Only members of that project can open it, and the dashboard redirects them straight into the project's Simulator.
- shared: true: any signed-in Tenderly user can open the draft in a project of their choice (the dashboard shows a project picker first). Use it for links aimed outside your organization, for example a governance UI that prefills a proposal simulation.
Payload handling
The payload is stored as received. The API enforces only the 256 KB size limit; the payload structure is validated when the draft opens in the dashboard, and a malformed payload is rejected there with an empty form. The dashboard itself creates drafts through this endpoint with shared: false.
Drafts expire automatically. Learn more about Simulator draft links.
