Uploads NFT metadata to IPFS as a JSON file which is the standard format for NFT metadata. You can use the returned metadata_ipfs_uri in Customizable minting to mint your NFT.
If you prefer hosting metadata in your own servers, you can skip this step. Otherwise, we recommend using IPFS because it’s an industry standard for decentralized storage and guarantees the immutability of your metadata. For the file_url, we also recommend using IPFS with Upload a file to IPFS.
We use nft.storage to pin the files with Filecoin, which ensures that your important data is retained in IPFS.
Useful for:
- Storing your NFT metadata easily and according to the industry standards.
