Introduction

Every call to the API has a standard Response body. The json format of the response body is as following:

{
 "success": "true or false",
 "data" : {
   "The Data as described in each method."
 }
}

The Chainrift API is designed to allow users access to all the features of the exchange. We provide our users the ability to utilize our API in order to create highly customised and advanced trading strategies. Our API contains both Public and Private endpoints.

To help you quickly get started with our API, we've provided short code examples in a variety of different programming languages.

Authentication

Our extensive public API is accessible to everyone and doesn't require any authentication. For any user related requests, you will need to access our Private API.

Generate your keys

Chainrift uses a token-based and public-key cryptography authentication system. To generate or manage your API key, visit your API Keys page. It's important to note that your API key carries the same privileges as your user account, so be sure to keep it secret!

On the API keys screen you can also set specific IP addresses where the API will be accessible from. You can also assign specific rights for API calls to deposits, withdrawals and trading.

Authentication is done by sending the following HTTP headers:

1. The APIKey (generated from our website).
   • To generate an API Key please login to your account.
   • On the user menu, select API Keys and press Generate API key.
   • Once an API key is generated, you will recieve a guid (API Key) and two private keys:
     • Pkcs1
     • Pkcs8
   • These private keys will be used to sign the APIAuthPayload below. The usage of these private keys depends on which library you decide to use. Please see the shortcode example on the right.
2. A unique APINonce string.
3. An APIAuthPayload string composed of: the url route (without host) + nonce
4. An APISignature, the signed APIAuthPayload in hex format used to verify the request authenticity. It is important to note that this string needs to be SHA-256 signed using the private key (generated during the API creation) and hex encoded.

Please see the REST API example below.

Rate Limits

The REST API is limited to 10 requests per second. If you exceed this limit you will receive a 429 error code and will need to wait 30 seconds before subsequent requests will succeed.

If the current rate limits don't support your use case, we'd love to hear about it to learn more. Please contact us at here.

REST API

Public

A short code example of our Public REST API:

from datetime import datetime
import requests

def call_api(method, body = []):
  global APIUrl
  headers = {
    "Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
  }

  res = requests.post(APIUrl + method, headers=headers, data=body, timeout=60)
  print(method, res.text, "\n")

APIUrl = "https://api.chainrift.com/"

# Example public API calls

call_api("v1/Public/GetPairStats", { "symbol": "ETH/BTC" });
call_api("v1/Public/Market");
call_api("v1/Public/GetOrderBook", { "symbol": "ETH/BTC" });
call_api("v1/Public/GetTradeHistory", { "symbol": "ETH/BTC" });

const request = require('request');
const querystring = require('querystring');

const APIUrl = "https://api.chainrift.com/";

function callAPI(method, body = {}) {
    options.uri = APIUrl + method;
    options.body = querystring.stringify(body);

    request(options, function (error, response, body) {
        if (response.statusCode == 200) {
            console.log(method, error, body);
        } else {
            console.log(method, "failed with status code", response.statusCode, response.headers["www-authenticate"]);
