Creates a new asset in your organization. The asset is automatically linked to the specified program on creation. All fields are required:
  • program_id — the program to link this asset to
  • name and symbol — display name and short code
  • inventory_mode — SIMPLE tracks a single balance per participant; LOT tracks individual batches with expiration and vesting dates
  • issuance_policy — UNLIMITED mints value on demand with no budget cap; PREFUNDED draws from the program wallet
  • scale — decimal precision from 0 to 18 (e.g., 2 for dollars and cents)
The inventory_mode, issuance_policy, and scale fields are immutable after creation because they affect how the ledger records and resolves balances. If you need a different configuration, create a new asset.
For usage patterns and examples, see the Asset Configuration guide.
