user140: Daedalus wallet recovery phrase is 24 words. Cardano Wallet Backend mnemonic sentence is 15 words and mnemonic second factor is 9 words, adding up to 24 words.
I tried restoring a wallet through Cardano Wallet Backend API by taking the first 15 words of the Daedalus wallet recovery phrase as an input for mnemonic_sentence and rest of the 9 words as an input for mnemonic_second_factor. Unfortunately, this does not work as the last word of the mnemonic_sentence produces an incorrect checksum.
Is there a way I can restore a wallet through the API knowing a Daedalus wallet recovery phrase?

user1142: The mnemonic_sentence can be between 15 and 24 words. The mnemonic_second_factor is optional. So you can simply pass all your 24 words in as mnemonic_sentence and don't set the mnemonic_second_factor and you should be able to restore your wallet.
