If NFT detection is not available in a selected blockchain network, you can manually import your NFTs to MetaMask. To import an NFT, you’ll need to specify its token ID and contract address.

Here’s an example of how to get an NFT’s token ID and contract address from the Polygon network and import the NFT to MetaMask:

  1. In the MetaMask app, tap Wallet at the top of the screen, and then select Polygon Main Network.

The Transaction Details page then appears.

Tip: You can write down the token ID manually or take a screenshot for a quick reference.
