Pre-Requisites

To submit a metadata entry for a native asset on Cardano, you must first follow the steps in How to prepare an entry for the registry and have a finalised metadata file ready for submission.

Step 1: Clone and fork the cardano-token-registry repository

$ git clone [email protected]:cardano-foundation/cardano-token-registry.git
$ cd cardano-token-registry
$ git remote add submission [email protected]:<your-github-username>/cardano-token-registry

Step 2: Add your metadata entry to the 'mappings' folder

$ cp /path-to-my-file/baa83...d65.json mappings/

Step 3: Create a commit for the submission

$ git add mappings/baa83...d65.json
$ git commit -m "Your Token Name"
$ git push submission HEAD

Step 4: Make a pull request

If the pull request validations pass, your submission will be reviewed and merged to the main branch subject to the Registry Terms of Use. It may take a few hours following a merge to the main branch before your entry is added to the database and available via the api query.
