Discontinued

This API no longer responds. Our last check on 2026-07-31 found no working endpoint — the service appears to have shut down or moved. The documentation, code samples and score below are kept for reference only; do not build against this API. See working Cryptocurrency APIs →

Overview

NovaDax is a cryptocurrency exchange API that gives access to real-time market data, order book information, and trading management features. Developers can use it to build trading bots or market monitoring tools for the Brazilian and Latin American crypto markets. An API key is required for trading endpoints, while market data can be accessed more freely.

Beginner Tip

Public market data endpoints on NovaDax do not require authentication, so you can fetch ticker prices without an API key to get started. Reserve your API key for placing or managing orders.

Available Data

The kind of data this API exposes, based on its documentation. We could not call the endpoint to confirm the exact field names.

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.

Implementation Example

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

Request
const url = "https://api.novadax.com/v1/market/tickers";
// 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.

401 Unauthorized Missing or incorrect API key in the request headers
Include your API key and secret in the required headers; refer to the NovaDax docs for the correct signature generation process
Invalid symbol error Using an incorrect trading pair symbol format
Fetch available symbols from /v1/common/symbols and use the exact symbol string returned (e.g., BTC_BRL)
429 Rate limit exceeded Sending too many requests in a short time window
Implement request throttling in your client; check the rate limit headers in the response to adjust your request frequency

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.
