NFT → Get NFT Metadata

AI-generated

Overview

This node interacts with the Moralis Web3 API to retrieve metadata for a specific NFT on a selected blockchain. It is useful for scenarios where users need detailed information about an NFT, such as its attributes, ownership details, and other metadata stored on the blockchain. For example, a user can input the NFT contract address and token ID to fetch the metadata of that NFT on Ethereum or other supported chains.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetching metadata for a specific NFT on Ethereum to display its details in a marketplace.
  2. Retrieving NFT metadata on Polygon to verify attributes before a transaction.

Properties

Name Meaning
Chain The blockchain network to query for the NFT metadata, e.g., Ethereum, Polygon, BSC.
NFT Contract Address The contract address of the NFT collection to query.
Token ID The specific token ID of the NFT to retrieve metadata for.
Additional Fields Optional parameters to customize the request, including limit of results, pagination cursor, whether to include metadata, and number format (decimal or hex).
