Metamask problem: eth_requestaccounts returns an array containing one account
As a Metamask user, you are probably familiar with the ETH_requestaccounts method that allows users to choose accounts who want to activate access to the Metamask interface. However, sometimes this method returns an array containing one account instead of multiple accounts.
What's going on?
This problem may occur for various reasons, including:
- Multiple requests : If you make multiple requests witheth_requestaccounts
in a quick order, API may be confused and return only one account.
- Account Selecting Restrictions : TheETH_REQuestaccounts method may not support the simultaneous selection of several accounts, which can lead to an array containing one account.
Steps to troubleshoot

To resolve this problem, follow these steps:
- Check the Metamask API documentation : Make sure you use the correct endpoint and parameters for your particular case.
- Check your account selection limitations : Check Metamask settings to confirm that several accounts can be selected at once.
Example code
Here is an updated example of how you can check your account selection restrictions:
`javascript
Const Ethereum = Window [‘Ethereum’];
Const ReQuestpermissions = Ethereum.reQuest ({{{
Method: “Eth_requestaccounts”,
Parames: [
{
Account: ‘0x …’, // Replace with your chosen account
Allownstandardsigners: TRUE,
IncludeprivateKekeys: False, // Optional, set to True if you need to use private keys
Including offers: True: // Optional, set to True if you want to select accounts that are off from the current account
}
)
});
If (requestpermissions.length> 1) {
Console.log (“Selected multiple accounts: ‘, request for re -gaps [0] .account);
} Else {
Console.log (“Chosen only one account: ‘, request for re -gaps [0] .account);
}
`
Conclusion

Following these steps, you need to be able to solve this problem and successfully select several accounts using theETH_reQuestaccounts method.
