.SH "NAME"
lightning-waitanyinvoice \- Protocol for waiting for payments\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fBwaitanyinvoice\fR [\fIlastlabel\fR]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fBwaitanyinvoice\fR RPC command waits until an invoice is paid, then returns a single entry as per \fBlistinvoice\fR\&. It will not return for any invoices paid prior to or including \fIlastlabel\fR\&.
.sp
This is usually called iteratively: once with no arguments, then repeatedly with the returned \fIlabel\fR entry\&. This ensures that no paid invoice is missed\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.sp
On success, the \fIrhash\fR, \fIlabel\fR, and \fImsatoshi\fR will be returned\&.
.SH "AUTHOR"
.sp
Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp\&.com\&.au> is mainly responsible\&.
