Authentication
Include your API key in the X-API-KEY header:
-H "X-API-KEY: your_api_key_here"
Make Your First Request
If you are using Python, we recommend using our official SDK for simpler integration and Pandas support.
curl "https://api.qoery.com/v0/candles?symbol=WETH-USDT&interval=15m&limit=10" \ -H "X-API-KEY: your_api_key_here"
const response = await fetch( 'https://api.qoery.com/v0/candles?symbol=WETH-USDT&interval=15m&limit=10', { headers: { 'X-API-KEY': 'your_api_key_here' } } ); const data = await response.json(); console.log(data);
import requests response = requests.get( 'https://api.qoery.com/v0/candles', headers={'X-API-KEY': 'your_api_key_here'}, params={ 'symbol': 'WETH-USDT', 'interval': '15m', 'limit': 10 } ) data = response.json() print(data)
Response
{ "data": [ { "time": "2023-11-30T12:00:00Z", "open": 2050.50, "high": 2060.00, "low": 2045.20, "close": 2055.80, "volume": 1500000.50 } ], "credits_used": 2 }
Recommended: Save Credits with Pool Addresses
Save credits per request by using pool addresses instead of symbols!
Why Use Pool Addresses?
- More efficient: Skips the pool discovery step
- Faster responses: Direct queries are quicker
- Lower cost: Consumes fewer credits by skipping discovery
How to Get Pool Addresses
Option 1: Use our /pools endpoint (one-time lookup)
# Find the pool once curl "https://api.qoery.com/v0/pools?symbol=WETH-USDT" \ -H "X-API-KEY: your_api_key_here" # Response includes pool address { "data": [{ "id": "0x88e6a0c2ddd26feeb64f039a2c41296fcb3f5640", ... }] }
Option 2: Get it from Uniswap (0 credits)
Then Use the Pool Address
# Efficient: Direct pool query curl "https://api.qoery.com/v0/candles?pool=0x88e6a0c2ddd26feeb64f039a2c41296fcb3f5640&interval=15m&limit=100" \ -H "X-API-KEY: your_api_key_here" # vs. # Less efficient: Symbol query curl "https://api.qoery.com/v0/candles?symbol=WETH-USDT&interval=15m&limit=100" \ -H "X-API-KEY: your_api_key_here"
Supported Networks
Fully Verified:
- ethereum (V3 and V4)
- arbitrum (V3 and V4)
- polygon (V3 only)
Note: Base and Optimism are configured but not yet verified. They may work but are not guaranteed.
Response Format
When using the symbol parameter instead of pool, the response includes a warning field with optimization suggestions:
{ "data": [...], "credits_used": 3, "warning": { "message": "Using a symbol parameter consumes more credits than using a pool address. Consider using a pool address instead.", "documentation_url": "https://qoery.com/docs/best-practices", "tip": "Get pool addresses from the /pools endpoint or Uniswap UI, then use the pool parameter instead of symbol." } }
The response also includes an X-API-Suggestion header with similar guidance.
