Mint NFT

Mint an ERC-1155 NFT.

About

Use this action to mint an NFT from a deployed ERC-1155 smart contract.

What do you mean by "mint from a smart contract"?

Think of an NFT smart contract as a factory that builds NFTs. When you deploy a new NFT smart contract you are building a factory that can be used to create any number of NFTs.

When you trigger the "Mint NFT" action on a smart contract you are using the "factory" to create a new NFT. There is no limit to the number of NFTs that can be created from one smart contract.

This action can only be called by the deployer of the ERC-1155 smart contract.

Here's an example of a BAYC's NFT custom attributes (referred to as properties on OpenSea).

Gasless Transaction 😱

As mentioned above, when a user would like to claim an NFT from your smart contract they must hold a balance of native tokens in their connected wallet to pay the network fee (gas fee) to claim the NFT from your contract.

This can lead to poor UX for new web3 users!

A solution to this problem is to use a Biconomy relayer to cover this gas fee for your users. All your user will need to do is sign a transaction with their connected wallet, then the transaction will be relayed to your Biconomy account to pay the gas fee to claim the NFT.
