Specifies the name of the new wallet. If a path is provided, the wallet will be created at the specified location.

Determines if the wallet is saved to persistent settings and loaded on startup. Set to true to add the wallet to the startup list, false to remove it, or null to leave unchanged.

Result

{                       (json object)
  "name" : "str",       (string) The wallet name if created successfully. If the wallet was created using a full path, the wallet_name will be the full path.
  "warning" : "str"     (string) Warning message if wallet was not loaded cleanly.
