Adding Slots

There are two ways that a slot can be added to your app. You can either create your own slots or add slots from an app that granted at least read-only permission to your app. A slot you created for your app is called a native slot. A slot added from another app is called a foreign slot. To learn how to create a slot for you app, please check out the Create a Slot page.

Adding a Foreign Slot

Adding a foreign slot allows you access NFTs from that slot when a user logs into your app. For example, if I wanted to use the dogs from Duro Dogs in my game, I would request permission from Duro Dogs and once that had been granted, I would add the "dog slot" to my app. To get started with adding a foreign slot, you'll need at least read-only permission from the app that owns the slot. To learn how to get permissions, check out Managing Permissions.

Be sure to use the description field to describe your intentions (i.e. building a Duro Dog extension game). This will increase the chance that the app grants the permission if it isn't automatically granted.

Once the permission has been accepted, you'll be able to view available slots by clicking on the "Add Foreign Slots" button. Using the checkbox to the right, you can select which of these new foreign slots like you'd like to activate (or deactivate) for your application.

Congrats! You're all set to implement the new slots and related NFTs into your App.
