NFT metadata not showing

Why your image hasn't appeared yet.

2 min read

IPFS gateways and marketplace indexers can take a few minutes to pick up new metadata.

Checklist:

  1. Open the metadata URI directly (https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/<cid>) — JSON should load.
  2. Open the image URL in the JSON — image should load.
  3. On OpenSea, click Refresh metadata on the asset page.
  4. On Solana, give Magic Eden 5–15 minutes after the first mint.

If the JSON or image fail to load, the original Pinata pin may have been removed. Re-pin and redeploy if needed.
