# Use custom contract calls

In this section we show how to use implement support for custom contract calls in `ContractCondition`.

Let's start with the following example:

```typescript
import { conditions } from '@nucypher/taco';

const myFunctionAbi: conditions.base.contract.FunctionAbiProps =  {
  name: 'myFunction',
  type: 'function',
  stateMutability: 'view',
  inputs: [
    {
      internalType: 'address',
      name: 'account',
      type: 'address',
    },
    {
      internalType: 'uint256',
      name: 'myCustomParam',
      type: 'uint256',
    },
  ],
  outputs: [
    {
      internalType: 'uint256',
      name: 'someValue',
      type: 'uint256',
    },
  ],
};

const myContractCallCondition = new conditions.base.contract.ContractCondition({
  method: 'myFunction', // `myMethodAbi.name`
  parameters: [':userAddress', ':myCustomParam'], // `myMethodAbi.inputs`
  functionAbi: myFunctionAbi, // Our custom function ABI
  contractAddress: '0x0...1',
  chain: 5,
  returnValueTest: {
    comparator: '>',
    value: 0,
  },
});
```

First, let's take a look at `myFunctionAbi`:

* We define a complete function ABI with `name`, `type`, `stateMutability`, `inputs`, and `outputs`
* With those fields in place, our function shapes up to be defined as `myFunction(address, uint256): uint256`
* Note that `type` field required to be `function` and `stateMutability` to `pure` and `view` to avoid accidentally mutating the contract state

Now, looking at `myContractCallCondition` we can see that:

* We need to pass `myFunction` as `method` and `myFunctionAbi` as `functionAbi` for our contract call to be recognized correctly
* We've mapped our function parameters to `parameters`, so that `address` is represented as `':userAddress'` and `uint256` is represented as `':myCustomParam'`. See [Condition Context and Context Variables](/for-developers/taco-sdk/references/authentication/conditioncontext-and-context-variables.md) for more details.
* Lastly, the `myFunctionAbi.outputs` will be used by `returnValueTest` to compare with the selected threshold `value`, resulting in a test `myFunctionAbi.outputs[0] > 0`
