# Alias transaction
The alias transaction allow you to give an alias to one account by paying a fixed fee of 1 NULS (apart from the common transaction size fee). The only thing needed to be configured is:
".from(address: string)"
The address of the account to be aliased".alias(alias: string)"
The alias as plain text
import {AliasTransaction} from '@nuls.io/transaction'
const fromAddress = 'NULSd6HgaHd7xnnHFkAh8VEAdDu4PyWFyRvw2'
const privateKey = '35daf771d7591e0a3021031efd561e97e2049bfe0ed7dd1a585330c721077d2b'
const tx = AliasTransaction
.from(fromAddress)
.alias('my_alias')
.sign(privateKey)
const txReceipt = await tx.send()
