How to set managed data on an account

Question

I am new to stellar. I want to add a data to my stellar account as a key value pair. As in "Name"(Key) - "John"(Value). How can I achieve this?

Pointing me to a sample code would be really helpful. Thank You.

Answer 1

Check out the Java API documentation. Here's the relevant ManageDataOperation builder.

Answer 2

I have found the way to do it by re-reading the documents.

What I needed to do was to attach the operation created by using ManageDataOperation.Builder() to the transaction. I have attached the sample code for future references.

ManageDataOperation.Builder manageDataOperation = new ManageDataOperation.Builder("Ownership", bt);

            Transaction tt = new Transaction.Builder(sourceAccount)
                    .addOperation(manageDataOperation.build())
                    .addMemo(Memo.text("Test Transaction")).setTimeout(1000)
                    .build();
