Overview

Coinigy is a multi-exchange cryptocurrency portfolio and charting platform whose API lets you connect to 45+ exchanges through a single authenticated interface. You can retrieve balances, place orders, and stream tick data from all linked exchange accounts without managing separate API credentials for each exchange. The API is primarily designed for existing Coinigy subscribers.

Beginner Tip

You need an active Coinigy account and a generated API key and secret pair from the Account Settings page before making any requests — there is no public unauthenticated tier.

Calls a real endpoint of this API. Replace any placeholder credentials with your own key.

Request
const url = "https://www.coinigy.com/api/v1/exchanges";
// Replace headers or query params with the values required by this API.
const response = await fetch(url, {
  headers: {
  "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
  }
});
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`Request failed: ${response.status}`);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

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.

403 Forbidden Account subscription has expired or API access is not enabled
Confirm your Coinigy subscription is active and that API access is toggled on in Account Settings.
Exchange not found in response Referencing an exchange code that differs from Coinigy internal identifier
Call /exchanges to retrieve the list of valid exchange codes before querying exchange-specific endpoints.
Empty balances array Exchange account not yet linked in Coinigy dashboard
Add the exchange API keys through the Coinigy web UI first; the API only returns accounts that are already connected.
