Generating New Metadata IRIs

Applications can create new metadata entries—such as project updates, claims, evidence references, or credit-class documents—using the IRI Generator API.

Generate an IRI (without storing it)

GET /data/v2/iri-gen

Generate + store an IRI and its metadata

POST https://api.regen.network/data/v2/iri-gen

Request body is the metadata document (JSON-LD). The response includes:

• iri: content-addressed IRI

• metadata: the stored document (if using POST)

This is the same endpoint used internally for:

• Project posts / updates

• Evidence sets

• Claims

• Methodology or credit-class metadata creation
