Create token-type & directly mint NFTs

This guide provides detailed instructions on how to create a token-type and mint NFTs at the same time. It covers the process of defining the token-type's attribute and how to mint NFTs simultaneously.

Prerequisites

You need a deployed NFT contract and it's
- Contract Address
- Blockchain of the Contract

📘
Learn how to create an NFT contract.

Defining token-type & minting NFTs in a single transaction

When creating a token-type, you can also define the destinations array, which includes information on the wallet/email address and quantity of NFTs to mint. You can define multiple wallet/email addresses within the destinations array.

👍

This single request will create a token-type and also mint NFTs to the specified addresses.

You can also create multiple token-types with this endpoint.

Request Endpoint: reference

POST /api/v3/erc1155/token-types/creations

❗️
Running the endpoint twice will create two token-types with the same metadata.

Check token mint status

You can check the status of the token mints using the creations.mints.id from the response of the previous endpoint. Each id is unique for each token mint. We will take an example from the above response and check the token mint status.
