NFT metadata structure

This article shows you how to structure your NFT metadata when uploading via the SDK. Here’s an example of metadata you can pass to mint an NFT.

const metadatas = [{
  name: "Common NFT #1",
  description: "Common NFT, one of many.",
  image: fs.readFileSync("path/to/image.png"),
  attributes: [
    {
      "trait_type": "Base",
      "value": "Starfish"
    },
    {
      "trait_type": "Eyes",
      "value": "Big"
    }
]

Here's how each of these properties work:

name	This is the name of the item.
description	This is a description of the item.
image	This is the location to the image of the item. We will automatically upload and pin to IPFS for you.
external_url	This is a URL that you would like to link with your item. This field is optional.
animation_url	This is the location to the media for the item. This can be GLTF, MP4, MP3, html’s, and more. We will automatically upload and pin to IPFS for you.
attributes	These are the attributes for the item and allow you to customize specific traits for your NFT.
