MintKudos for Developers

You can integrate MintKudos into your application using the MintKudos Developer Documentation!
With MintKudos integrated into a project, you will gain access to helpful APIs which will allow you to:
  • Create and claim Kudos natively
  • View a wallet's Kudos token(s)
  • Add recipient to an existing Kudos
  • Airdrop the same token to many owners
  • Migrate an existing NFT contract to MintKudos
Additionally, there are some asynchronous operations that allow you to get the transaction hash, Resource ID (returns after blockchain operation is completed), and the status of the Kudos operation (pending, processing, success, and error).

Overview of APIs

  • Tokens API: Enables the ability to obtain or modify token information.
  • Wallets API: Enables the ability to return created token information.
  • Communities API: Enables the ability to return information about MintKudos communities.

Why use the MintKudos APIs?

The MintKudos APIs are a great way to integrate MintKudos features into your application.
Without the MintKudos APIs, you would need to write a smart contract from scratch to mint Soulbound NFTs for your community.
Using the MintKudos APIs makes this a much easier process. Our responsive team manages all of this for you under the hood and provides capabilities familiar to most developers.
Additionally, we pay the gas fees for all of our users so that no one in a community has to worry about owning crypto.
