getNFTs() returns empty metadata and token_uri

[purplecomet1]

When calling getNFTs(), it successfully returns the right tokens, but the metadata and token_uri fields are empty for some tokens, despite existing (especially for tokens not minted using OpenSea)

I see this issue has come up several times in the past, eg:

NFT tokens missing token_uri and metadata

Hi, I am using Moraling APIS to get the NFTs associated to an account and grabbing the token_uri and the metadata. For some reasons las week I was able to get all the info associated with it, but right now those fields are coming empty. Any ideas ??

Metadata missing on some NFTs

we expect to get that metadata synced today

When will this be fixed?

I am going to need an example from you case where you don’t have that token_uri field

Hi, token_uri does not updated sync. We have same problem. It is available when we checked the tokenURI directly executing contract method. Using moralis api we couldn’t reach some of them, it returns empty value. After some minutes(maybe 5-10 minutes) the token_uri fields filled correctly.
we are using this method “Moralis.Web3API.token.getAllTokenIds”.

Hey,

You can read more about how it works now here:

Moralis Now Automatically Updates NFT Metadata

Good news! Moralis automatically updates metadata. Here is how it works Whenever you request a token using the endpoints below if will be queued for refresh. /nft/{address}/{token_id} /nft/{address}/{token_id}/owners /nft/{address}/{token_id}/transfers In a few days we will also add that no matter which endpoint you call - if that endpoint returns any NFTs they will all be scheduled for refresh. That will include the following endpoints: /{address}/nft /nft/{address} /nft/{address}/tran…

For now, when you call Moralis.Web3API.token.getAllTokenIds, the metadata will not be updated automatically.
