difference between issueAsset and create RawTransaction

+1 vote
Hi,

I have two nodes , one is admin node A1 and other is child node A2 which is listening to seed node A1.

So A1 has the option of issueing Assets and not A2. A2 can only create raw transactions and not issue assets.

So my question here is :

What is the difference between issueAsset and creating a raw transaction ?

In both the cases, I am getting Transaction Id as the output . But I am not able to understand the difference between the both.

Please note that I have done the complete setup on Windows Platform .

Can anyone please help me out on the above issue?

Thanks in Advance !!

Issuing an asset still takes place in a transaction, but it's just a special type of transaction that causes the asset to be created. Addresses (and therefore the nodes that own those addresses) need special permissions in order to be allow to perform that special transaction, which is why node 1 can do it but node 2 cannot.
