What is IPFS and why do I need an IPFS Provider?What is IPFS? IPFS, or the InterPlanetary File System, is a protocol designed to create a distributed and decentralized method of storing and sharing digital content. Itâs essentially a peer-to-peer network where each file and piece of data are stored on multiple nodes, ensuring that the data remains accessible and safe.

-
What does the .nsb file contain?The .nsb file contains the information of each NFT in your collection (the traits) and the IPFS link of the images. This file is used to generate the metadata for your collection. There is information on how the .json metadata is manually generated from the .nsb file.
-
Why canât I upload .nsb file into a .json file without adding it to a collection?This has to be done either by the developer or it is automatically created when uploaded to the collection inside the minting dashboard. JPG Studio was created to work hand-in-hand with using our minting platform.
-
Can I view the .nsb file with the metadata?Not yet but you will be able to soon though!
-
Why does it create a new .nsb file every time I hit generate?Whenever you generate a collection it creates a new .nsb file with the current rules (limits, percentages, avoid/forces). If you want to continue working on a collection generated before, you can "import" the .nsb file. It's building a completely new list of generated assets.
-
After selling out a collection are we able to re-open the mint and add more assets to sell/mint?Currently we only support one primary .JSON file to be added to a single policy ID but something we plan to add in the future. While re-opening the mint under the same policy ID is not possible at this time, we do have an airdrop feature which allows you to create assets under the same policy ID and added to the same collection.
