#### 6. Approve and Deploy Transaction

Use Metamask to approve the transaction.&#x20;

![Approve Deployment transaction](/files/m4DF2CbqsQDr1m9VZO2m)

{% hint style="info" %}
Once you click *Create*, it takes 60 seconds for the metadata to be propagated by Pinata so that the Subgraph may read it. Please be patient.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

#### 7. Verify Asset creation

![Verify Asset was created correctly](/files/KQ6vm3NjJ7rULpRwbrLa)

{% hint style="info" %}
The Content subgraph takes a few seconds to a few minutes to update. Please wait for the transaction to succeed and propagate to the subgraph.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}

#### \[Alpha Testnet Known Issue]

Once propagated, if the newly created asset did not populate the information, it means the IPFS metadata wasn't propagated properly and TheGraph was not able to parse the metadata. We're looking to switch from Arweave to IPFS, but it is currently not yet supported on TheGraph. The transition will take some time.

In the meantime, please just redeploy a new asset.&#x20;
