Triggering NFT metadata update

[eliemichel]

Summary

Hello,

I have a collection of Solana NFTs where the (offchain) metadata gets updated from time to time through a community-based mechanism. It used to work a long time ago, and we are now back from a long pause but the metadata no longer update in Phantom wallets. Is there an endpoint that can be called to trigger an update of the metadata cache?

For instance, our NFT PixTape #1502 was rewritten ~10 days ago. It displays well in Solana Explorer, SolScan or MagicEden, but still hasn't been updated in Phantom.

The following 5 tokens would need an update at least:

• HCKVgtEBFDaR6GeuVgJqg36rP2YyzAgFCiZbY4deGa3t
• 2bnH5DGRSRYa6orSzERudXBDpmtAL3r2JiWQJK1K2dDA
• 4oUFwJyMkW4gHLv55ggRCViUiD8PZkXdoB7k9jrVkCd3
• nUzd7S42SXnu1qu6Q4JQQaEn7Bd3wELUJQwWFRPr773
• EmruYvVVcyjKhDabGXa4BAa9fBtarE5wtSQ8YzM5LFPu

NB: For now we are going at a slow pace, say 5 NFT per month get updated, but we're hopping to progressively make the collection fully autonomous and community driven. At least knowing the maximum time to live of the cached data would help us set up the pace.

Thanks!

hello @eliemichel For the time being you can call the SimpleHash metadata referesh api
