# Mint NFT with ID

> Mint an NFT via an idempotent endpoint by providing an nftName parameter, and send it to a web3 wallet or web2 email address

Replace:

* `<QUICKNODE_URL>`: Set to your own quicknode RPC URL
* `<collectionId>`: The name of the collection you want to mint against. If you haven't created a collection you can just use "default" to mint to the default collection for your project
* `<nftSlug>`: The idempotent slug for the NFT

> 📘
>
> Tip: when delivering NFTs to an email address, recipients should sign in with their email at [https://staging.crossmint.com/signin](https://staging.crossmint.com/signin) to access their NFTs. Ensure you send them an email with these instructions after minting.

```bash cURL theme={null}
curl -i '<QUICKNODE_URL>' -X POST -H 'content-type: application/json' --data-binary '{
