# Delegated Authorities (Proxied)

Proxies are useful because they allow you to delegate authority over certain types of transactions to another account. Rather than using a single account, you can delegate authority to multiple smaller accounts with unique roles to carry out specific actions on behalf of your primary account.

The proxy accounts can be hotter than the primary account which in most instances is likely a cold storage wallet. The proxy accounts can carry out specific operations on behalf of the primary account which adds some level of flexibility in your account management setup.

Some example use cases of Proxy accounts:

1. Setting a hot wallet as a staking proxy to your cold storage wallet so you can easily change the validators you are nominating to.
2. Setting a hot wallet as a governance proxy to your cold storage wallet so that you can more easily vote in governance.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.novaspektr.io/wallet-management/proxies/delegated-authorities-proxied.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
