Overview

Bitcambio is a Brazilian cryptocurrency exchange that exposes a public REST API to retrieve all currently traded asset pairs and their market data. You can fetch ticker information such as bid/ask prices and 24-hour volume without registering an account. This makes it useful for monitoring BRL-denominated crypto markets programmatically.

Beginner Tip

No API key is required for the public endpoints, so you can start making requests immediately. The base URL is https://nova.bitcambio.com.br/api/v3 — try /public/tickers to get all market pairs at once.

Available Data

Example Response

Illustrative shape only — we were not able to call this endpoint (it requires credentials or exposes no public sample URL), so the fields below show the kind of data this API returns rather than a recorded response.

Common Errors & Troubleshooting

Generated guidance based on this API's documentation, not observed by us. Treat it as a starting point and check against the provider's own error reference.

404 Not Found on /api/v3/docs The docs URL is an HTML page, not a JSON endpoint; it is for reading only.
Use /api/v3/public/tickers or /api/v3/public/orderbook/{symbol} as actual API endpoints.
Empty or unexpected response body Some endpoints return an empty array when no trades exist for a pair.
Check that the trading pair (e.g., BTCBRL) is currently active by first calling /public/tickers.
SSL certificate errors on older clients The API uses SNI-based TLS which some older HTTP clients do not handle.
Upgrade your HTTP client library or add the --tlsv1.2 flag with curl.

Metadata Score Breakdown

Estimated from metadata — endpoint not independently tested

This score is estimated from observable metadata — HTTPS support, authentication model, declared CORS, and documentation reachability — because the API requires authentication or exposes no publicly testable endpoint. The five-signal breakdown is only shown for live-tested APIs.
