    B --> C{Asset ID recognized?}
    C -->|Yes| D[Auto-match with existing asset]
    C -->|No| E[Flag warning ⚠️ and show 'Create' button]
    E --> F[Click 'Create' to open pre-filled modal]
    F --> G[Save asset to resolve mapping]
    G --> D
    D --> H[Commit all transactions]

🧪 Testing Provider Configuration

After configuring a provider, click Test Configuration to verify that pricing data can be fetched. The test checks:

  • Current Price: fetches the latest price
  • History: fetches historical price data (if supported)

Results are displayed inline with execution times. A ⚠️ warning means the operation is not supported by this provider (e.g., CSS Scraper doesn't support history).

🔌 Provider Assignment

Each asset can have one pricing provider assigned. See Providers for details on available providers and their configuration.

🛠️ Editing an Asset

Click the Edit (✏️) button on the detail page to open the asset modal with all fields pre-populated. All fields are editable, including provider configuration and distributions.
