MsgRegisterInterchainAccount

An Interchain Accounts channel handshake can be initiated using MsgRegisterInterchainAccount: 
type MsgRegisterInterchainAccount struct {
    Owner        string
  ConnectionID string
  Version      string
}
This message is expected to fail if: This message will construct a new MsgChannelOpenInit on chain and route it to the core IBC message server to initiate the opening step of the channel handshake. The controller submodule will generate a new port identifier and claim the associated port capability. The caller is expected to provide an appropriate application version string. For example, this may be an ICS-27 JSON encoded Metadata type or an ICS-29 JSON encoded Metadata type with a nested application version. If the Version string is omitted, the controller submodule will construct a default version string in the OnChanOpenInit handshake callback. 
type MsgRegisterInterchainAccountResponse struct {
    ChannelID string
}
The ChannelID is returned in the message response.

​
MsgSendTx

An Interchain Accounts transaction can be executed on a remote host chain by sending a MsgSendTx from the corresponding controller chain: 
type MsgSendTx struct {
    Owner           string
  ConnectionID    string
  PacketData      InterchainAccountPacketData 
  RelativeTimeout uint64
}
This message is expected to fail if:
  • Owner is an empty string.
  • ConnectionID is invalid (see 24-host naming requirements).
  • PacketData contains an UNSPECIFIED type enum, the length of Data bytes is zero or the Memo field exceeds 256 characters in length.
  • RelativeTimeout is zero.
This message will create a new IBC packet with the provided PacketData and send it via the channel associated with the Owner and ConnectionID. The PacketData is expected to contain a list of serialized []sdk.Msg in the form of CosmosTx. Please note the signer field of each sdk.Msg must be the interchain account address. When the packet is relayed to the host chain, the PacketData is unmarshalled and the messages are authenticated and executed. 
type MsgSendTxResponse struct {
    Sequence uint64
}
The packet Sequence is returned in the message response.

​
Atomicity

As the Interchain Accounts module supports the execution of multiple transactions using the Cosmos SDK Msg interface, it provides the same atomicity guarantees as Cosmos SDK-based applications, leveraging the CacheMultiStore architecture provided by the Context type. This provides atomic execution of transactions when using Interchain Accounts, where state changes are only committed if all Msgs succeed.
