Assign an Authorized Minter
You can assign another account permission to mint NFTokens for you.
This example shows how to:
- Authorize an account to create NFTokens for your account.
- Mint a NFToken for another account, when authorized.
Usage
You can download the Quickstart Samples archive to try the sample in your own browser.
Get Accounts
- Open
6.authorized-minter.html
in a browser. - Choose your ledger instance (Testnet or Devnet).
- If you have existing test account seeds:
- Paste the account seeds in the Seeds field.
- Click Get Accounts from Seeds.
- If you do not have existing test accounts:
- Click Get New Standby Account.
- Click Get New Operational Account.
- If you have existing test account seeds:
Authorize an Account to Create NFTokens
To authorize another account to create NFTokens for your account:
- Copy the Operational Account value.
- Paste the Operational Account value in the Authorized Minter field.
- Click Set Minter.
Mint a NFToken for Another Account
This example uses the Operational account, which was authorized in the previous step, to mint a token on behalf of the Standby account.
To mint a non-fungible token for another account:
- Set the Flags field. For testing purposes, we recommend setting the value to 8.
- Enter the NFToken URL. This is a URI that points to the data or metadata associated with the NFToken object. You can use the sample URI provided if you do not have one of your own.
- Enter the Transfer Fee, a percentage of the proceeds that the original creator receives from future sales of the NFToken. This is a value of 0-50000 inclusive, allowing transfer rates between 0.000% and 50.000% in increments of 0.001%. If you do not set the Flags field to allow the NFToken to be transferrable, set this field to 0.
- Copy the Standby Account value.
- Paste the Standby Account value in the Operational account Issuer field.
- Click the Operational account Mint Other button.
Once the item is minted, the authorized minter can sell the NFToken normally. The proceeds go to the authorized minter, less the transfer fee. The minter and the issuer can settle up on a division of the price separately.
Create a Sell Offer
To create a NFToken sell offer:
- On the Operational account side, enter the Amount of the sell offer in drops (millionths of an XRP), for example 100000000 (100 XRP
- Set the Flags field to 1.
- Enter the NFToken ID of the minted NFToken you want to sell.
- Optionally, enter a number of days until Expiration.
- Click Create Sell Offer.
The important piece of information in the response is the NFToken Offer Index, labeled as nft_offer_index
, which is used to accept the sell offer.
Accept Sell Offer
Once a sell offer is available, you can create a new account to accept the offer and buy the NFToken.
To accept an available sell offer:
- Click Get New Standby Account.
- Enter the NFToken Offer Index (labeled as
nft_offer_index
in the NFToken offer results. This is different from thenft_id
). - Click Accept Sell Offer.
The results show that the Issuer account has been credited 25 XRP. The Buyer account was debited the 100 XRP price plus 12 drops as the transaction cost. The Seller (Authorized Minter) account is credited 75 XRP. the Issuer and the Seller can divide the proceeds per their agreement in a separate transaction.

Set Minter
This function sets the authorized minter for an account. Each account can have 0 or 1 authorized minter that can mint NFTokens in its stead.

async function setMinter(type) {
Connect to the ledger and get the account.

Define the AccountSet transaction, setting the NFTokenMinter
account and the asfAuthorizedNFTokenMinter
flag.

"Account": my_wallet.address,
Set NFTokenMinter
to the account number of the authorized minter.

Set the asfAuthorizedNFTokenMinter
flag (the numeric value is 10).

Prepare and send the transaction, then wait for results
const prepared = await client.autofill(tx_json)
const signed = my_wallet.sign(prepared)
const result = await client.submitAndWait(signed.tx_json)
If the transaction succeeds, show the results. If not, report that the transaction failed.

Disconnect from the XRP Ledger.
client.disconnect()
} // End of configureAccount()
Mint Other
This revised mint function allows one account to mint for another issuer.
// *******************************************************
// **************** Mint Other *************************
// *******************************************************
async function mintOther() {
Connect to the ledger and get the account.
results = 'Connecting to ' + getNet() + '....'

This transaction blob is the same as the one used for the previous mintToken()
function, with the addition of the Issuer
field.
const transactionBlob = {
"TransactionType": "NFTokenMint",
"Account": standby_wallet.classicAddress,
The URI is a link to a data file represented by the NFToken.
"URI": xrpl.convertStringToHex(standbyTokenUrlField.value),
At a minimum, we recommend that you set the tfTransferable
flag (8) to enable accounts to sell and resell the NFToken for testing purposes.
"Flags": parseInt(standbyFlagsField.value),
Transfer fee is a value 0-50000 representing .001% of the price for a resale to be returned to the original issuer. For example, 25000 translates to 25% of the price to be sent to the issuer on resale.
"TransferFee": parseInt(standbyTransferFeeField.value),
The Issuer is the original creator of the object represented by the NFToken.
"Issuer": standbyIssuerField.value,
The NFTokenTaxon
is an optional number field the issuer can use for their own purposes. The same taxon can be used for multiple tokens. Set it to 0 if you have no use for it.
"NFTokenTaxon": 0 //Required, but if you have no use for it, set to zero.
}
Submit the transaction and wait for the results.
const tx = await client.submitAndWait(transactionBlob, { wallet: standby_wallet} )
const nfts = await client.request({
method: "account_nfts",
account: standby_wallet.classicAddress
})
Report the results.
results += '\n\nTransaction result: '+ tx.result.meta.TransactionResult
results += '\n\nnfts: ' + JSON.stringify(nfts, null, 2)

Reciprocal Transactions
These functions duplicate the functions of the standby account for the operational account. See the corresponding standby account function for walkthrough information.
