## [NFT API](/docs/reference/nft-api-quickstart)

Alchemy's [NFT API](/docs/reference/nft-api) allows you to quickly get all the information you need to know about NFTs from the blockchain.

Rather than searching, indexing, and storing data yourself - you can now make one request to fetch specific NFT information for both [ERC-721 and ERC-1155 tokens](https://www.alchemy.com/blog/comparing-erc-721-to-erc-1155), like:

* All NFTs owned by an address
* Metadata and attributes for a specific NFT token
