About Token Metadata
Token metadata contains important information that helps users identify and understand this token. This includes basic details like name and symbol, as well as additional information like description, images, and social links.
Token metadata may be updatable depending on the token's Update Authority status. If the Update Authority is revoked or disabled (or the token is immutable), metadata is locked and cannot be modified.
💡 View on Devnet
You can view Solana token metadata on Devnet for SPL and Token-2022 tokens. Devnet and Mainnet are separate networks, so tokens deployed on Mainnet are not accessible on Devnet unless they are also deployed there.
Understanding Authorities
- Active Authority - The account can still modify this aspect of the token (mint new tokens, freeze accounts, update metadata, or for Token 2022: change tax settings or withdraw withheld fees)
- Revoked/Disabled Authority - The control has been permanently removed and this aspect of the token is locked
Important Notes
- This is a view-only tool; no changes are made.
- Select tokens from your connected wallet to view their metadata.
- Data shown is read directly from the blockchain.
- Check authority status for project trust.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Solana Token Metadata Viewer?
The Metadata Viewer is a free tool provided by DEXArea that allows you to view the on-chain metadata for tokens in your wallet. Connect your wallet and select a token to see its complete details including name, symbol, image, description, social links, and authority status.
What information does the viewer show?
It displays all key public metadata, including:
- Token Name and Symbol
- Token Image (Logo)
- Description and Social Links
- Authority Status: It clearly shows whether the Mint, Freeze, and Update authorities are still active or have been revoked.
Can I view Solana token metadata on Devnet?
Yes. You can View Solana Token Metadata on Devnet for SPL or Token-2022 tokens in your wallet. Devnet is separate from Mainnet, so the token must exist on Devnet — Mainnet tokens cannot be viewed on Devnet unless you create a Devnet version.
Is this tool completely free to use?
Yes. The Solana Token Metadata Viewer is 100% free. We offer it as a utility to support the Solana community. There are no platform fees or network transaction fees since it's a read-only tool.
Why is it important to check a token's authorities?
Checking authorities is crucial for assessing a project's decentralization and trust. For example:
- Revoked Mint Authority: Means the total supply cannot be increased, preventing inflation.
- Revoked Update Authority: Means the token's metadata (like its name and symbol) is locked and cannot be changed.
This information helps you make more informed investment or development decisions.
Do I need to connect my wallet?
Yes, you must connect your wallet to use this tool. The Metadata Viewer requires a wallet connection to select tokens from your holdings. Once connected, you can choose any token from your wallet to view its complete metadata and authority status.
How is this different from a full blockchain explorer?
While blockchain explorers like Solscan show all network data, our tool is specialized. It is designed to present only the token metadata and authority status in a clean, simple, and easy-to-understand format, making it much faster for this specific purpose.
