Hello guys i am trying to build a contract that act with eosio.token to make a transfer from my contract using inline action with the eosio.token contract
here my code

#include <eosio/eosio.hpp>
#include <eosio.token/eosio.token.hpp>

using namespace std;
using namespace eosio;

class [[eosio::contract("test")]] test:public eosio::contract{
    private:
        void make_transfer(name& from,name& to,asset& quantity,string& memo)
        {
            token::transfer_action transfer{"eosio.token"_n, {from, "active"_n}};
            transfer.send(from,to,quantity, memo);
        }

    public:
        test(name receiver,name code,datastream <const char*> ds):contract(receiver,code,ds){}
        [[eosio::action]]
        void trade(name from,name to ,asset fromcoin,asset tocoin,string memo)
        {
            make_transfer(from,to,fromcoin,memo);
        }

};

i got these error

Error 3090003: Provided keys, permissions, and delays do not satisfy declared authorizations
Ensure that you have the related private keys inside your wallet and your wallet is unlocked.

I ran into the exact same issue. You have to add your smart contract to the active permission. Check out this answer, it will solve your problem:

You can't do this like what eosio.system does. eosio.system is usually deployed on eosio, privileged account, that can send any action with any permission.

Any inline actions your contract send is executed with permission YOUR_CONTRACT@eosio.code. If you want to make USER's token to be transferred by your contract, USER need to add YOUR_CONTRACT@eosio.code to USER@active. (but it means your contract can send any action with user's active permission)

In this case, it is better to make a notification handler than make your action transfer user's token.

[[eosio::on_notify(eosio.token::transfer)]]
void on_token_transfer(name from, name to, asset quantity, string memo) {
  do_something_what_you_want_to_do_when_receiving_token();
}

use inline action with eosio.token
