Getting Started

API Overview

Whether you’re building trading bots, conducting in-depth market research, or developing financial applications, the Guavy API equips you with the essential insights needed to stay ahead in the fast-paced world of cryptocurrency.

To use the Guavy API, you need a Guavy account. What you can do with the API depends on what level of Guavy plan you have. Once you have an account and are logged in, you can get an API key and begin making calls to the API.

Using the Guavy API

You can use the Guavy API to handle data in different ways for different purposes. If you are syncing a large amount of data with Guavy, you can use batches to avoid hitting the API request limits.

For building applications that let other users access Guavy data you will need a reseller license.

If you're developing an app for iOS or Android, then a mobile-focused subset of the Guavy API's functionality, can be licensed separately. This allows you to build mobile applications that can access Guavy data without needing a full reseller license.

API Structure

The Guavy API generally follows REST conventions, with some deviations.

• Endpoints represent the various API routes available.
• Requests are typically made using standard HTTP methods like GET and POST.
• Requests require authentication using API keys or OAuth tokens.
• Responses are typically JSON objects.
• Errors include standard HTTP status codes and messages.
• Actions are usually represented by HTTP methods.
• Responses use the generic JSON content type.

We use an API specification to describe each endpoint. The API documentaition also contains type information to help validate and process responses.
