I’m the owner of a ERC721 contract, but setTokenURI transactions for token #1 (got 25 total that got the same media with manifold) are reverting. Please confirm if metadata is immutable, the contract is paused, or if there are any restrictions or additional requirements for setTokenURI.
Hi - Just trying to understand what you’re trying to do. You’re looking to update the metadata for token 1 of your contract out of the 25 that have been minted?
Contracts are immutable, but for tokens, its possible for an artist to update the metadata of a token. This is typically used for more performance art style tokens where the metadata can change over time.
yeah thats exactly what i try to do. my collection has 25 tokens wich all hold the same metadata/media. i was googling for a way to change token 1 to image 1 token 2 to image 2 etc. and found the setTokenURI way. when i try write to the contract every txn fails
Do you have a transaction you can provide us? Can look into this
Are you doing this on etherscan? There is no reason you would not be able to call setTokenURI unless you are calling it incorrectly, or from a wallet that is not the admin.
Was this minted as a series? If that’s the case you have to use the extension to update it. In which case I suggest using the UX itself.
you mean i can do this from manifold? when i went into manifold i saw i could edit the media but that would change it for all 25 tokens. i want to change them 1 by 1

howdy! so this is just a UX limitation but not a contract limitation. this made us realize we need to add the feature of being able to swap between identical and non-identical series at will. if you’d like to try and figure out the contract calls, you’ll need to use this contract on base scan to do it:
https://basescan.org/address/0x76Da6eB8C7bA072937E917286D3a23Dc7cCbed99#writeContract
you’ll see the “setTokenURI” function in write. it requires attaching many more parameters than usual but if you’re adventurous you can figure it out! One thing to be wary of is that it expects a URL that leads to a folder of metadata JSON files on arweave, not just a single metadata JSON file.
cheers! will report back when we have the UX side figure out for you.
