# Minting New Traits

To perform a minting operation, the Integrator must send a POST request to the following endpoint:

```bash
POST /v1/account/get-token
```

The request body should contain the following parameters:

* `collection_id`: the unique identifier of the collection
* `token_id`: the on-chain token ID to which the traits will be assigned
* `traits`: a list of trait objects that will be added to the token

The traits should be submitted in the following format:

```json
{ "trait_type": "trait type name", "value": "trait value" }
```

Here's an example payload of the request body for adding two traits:

```json
{
  "collection_id": "abc123",
  "token_id": "12345",
  "traits": [
    { "trait_type": "trait type name", "value": "trait value" },
    { "trait_type": "another trait type name", "value": "another trait value" }
  ]
}
```

Only the `value` and `trait_type` fields are required in the payload. The `renderOrder` and `imageUrl` fields are not needed.

Make sure the traits posted in the traits collection match the trait metadata provided during the creation of the collection.

For example, if the metadata includes a trait object in the following format:

```json
{
  "value": "Background 01",
  "trait_type": "Background",
  "render_order": "1",
  "image_url": "https://arweave.net/4bvRkfaClkLosqJsXylLeE1n2oabIg5k2gKVc6xLInQ"
}
```

Then, the `trait_type` and `value` fields sent in the POST request should match the above trait object as shown below:

```json
{
  "value": "Background 01",
  "trait_type": "Background"
}
```

Upon successful completion of the request, the token's traits will be updated, and the metadata associated with the token will reflect the new changes on-chain. You can then query the metadata using our API.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Minting traits is a privileged operation and should only be performed by collection admins who have been granted the necessary permissions.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.playground.ooo/degen-engine/guides/minting-new-traits.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
