How to Register Music on Story

In this tutorial, you will learn how to properly register music as IP on Story using the TypeScript SDK.

First...

Most of this tutorial is covered in How to Register IP on Story. Complete that tutorial first, and then come back here.

The only difference is how you set your metadata. In your ipMetadata, you can set a few extra related parameters (ipType, media, attributes, creators) like so:

const ipMetadata: IpMetadata = client.ipAsset.generateIpMetadata({
  title: 'My IP Asset',
  description: 'This is a test IP asset',
  ipType: 'Music',
  media: [
    {
      name: 'Rise Again',
      url: 'https://cdn1.suno.ai/937e3060-65c0-4934-acab-7d8cc05eb9a6.mp3',
      mimeType: 'audio/mpeg',
    },
  ],
  attributes: [
    {
      key: 'Artist',
      value: 'srivatsan_qb',
    },
    {
      key: 'Artist ID',
      value: '4123743b-8ba6-4028-a965-75b79a3ad424',
    },
    {
      key: 'Source',
      value: 'Suno.com',
    },
  ],
  creators: [
    {
      name: 'srivatsan_qb',
      address: account.address,
      contributionPercent: 100,
    },
  ],
})

In your nftMetadata, in order for the music to actually be played on our explorer you must set a media parameter, and then you can also set some attributes that look something like this:

const nftMetadata = {
  name: 'Test NFT',
  description: 'This is a test NFT',
  image: 'https://picsum.photos/200',
  media: [
    {
      name: 'Rise Again',
      url: 'https://cdn1.suno.ai/937e3060-65c0-4934-acab-7d8cc05eb9a6.mp3',
      mimeType: 'audio/mpeg',
    },
  ],
  attributes: [
    {
      key: 'Artist',
      value: 'srivatsan_qb',
    },
    {
      key: 'Artist ID',
      value: '4123743b-8ba6-4028-a965-75b79a3ad424',
    },
    {
      key: 'Source',
      value: 'Suno.com',
    },
  ],
}

Done!

When you run the script, you will register an IP Asset and it will look something like this on our explorer.

You can see the explorer recognizes the metadata format, and you can play the song directly on the page!
