The \fBgetroute\fR RPC command attempts to find the best route for the payment of \fImsatoshi\fR to lightning node \fIid\fR, such that the payment will arrive at \fIid\fR with \fIcltv\fR\-blocks to spare (default 9)\&.

The \fIfuzzpercent\fR is a positive floating\-point number, representing a percentage of the actual fee\&. The \fIfuzzpercent\fR is used to distort computed fees along each channel, to provide some randomization to the route generated\&. 0\&.0 means the exact fee of that channel is used, while 100\&.0 means the fee used might be from 0 to twice the actual fee\&.
