What is the correct way to keep track of NFTs on the Shimmer base layer? Once NFT's are taken off a marketplace like Soonaverse, what the best way to track these?

The indexer is the easiest way. Use the correct query parameters and you can search for whole collections or single nft ids

/api/indexer/v1/outputs/nft/{nftId} from https://editor.swagger.io/?url=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iotaledger/tips/main/tips/TIP-0026/indexer-rest-api.yaml

e.g.

https://api.shimmer.network/api/indexer/v1/outputs/nft/0x041e76073026afab15dbae86eeb2c7dd6876c463ca39fe03f62fecf1d7b6b268

The API response above returns the output ID for that NFT and with that it is possible to request the output https://api.shimmer.network/api/core/v2/outputs/0x2997478822516ed4a796accd75beaba6608413934579f8f4b0ce18c6a2df07fa0100

Now in Python it is possible to use the following code to get the immutable_metadata of the NFT:

output_data = client.get_output('0x2997478822516ed4a796accd75beaba6608413934579f8f4b0ce18c6a2df07fa0100')
immutable_features = output_data['output']['immutableFeatures']
# get metadata feature
immutable_metadata = [o for o in immutable_features if o['type'] == 2][0]['data']
print(bytes.fromhex(immutable_metadata[2:]).decode('utf-8'))
