Public Rest API for 3commas.io (2020-11-27)

General API Information

Official Announcements regarding changes, downtime, etc. to the API will be reported here: https://t.me/commas_API
We have telegram group where you can discuss any issues with API https://t.me/xcommas_api
Streams, endpoints, parameters, payloads, etc. decscribed in the documents in this repository are considered official and supported.
The use of any other streams, endpoints, parameters, or payloads, etc. is not supported; use them at your own risk and with no guarantees.
The base endpoint is: https://api.3commas.io/public/api
All endpoints return either a JSON object or array.
PAIR format is QUOTE_BASE (for example USDT_BTC) for all exchanges (no matter what format the exchange is using).
Data is returned in ascending order. Oldest first, newest last.
All time and timestamp related fields are in seconds.
HTTP 4XX return codes are used for malformed requests; the issue is on the sender's side.
HTTP 429 return code is used when breaking a request rate limit.
HTTP 418 return code is used when an IP has been auto-banned for continuing to send requests after receiving 429 codes.
HTTP 5XX return codes are used for internal errors; the issue is on 3commas's side.
HTTP 504 return code is used when the API successfully sent the message
Any endpoint can return an ERROR; the error payload is as follows:

{
  "error": "record_invalid",
  "error_description": "Invalid parameters",
  "error_attributes": {
    "api_key": [
      "is too short (minimum is 5 characters)"
    ],
    "secret": [
      "is too short (minimum is 5 characters)"
    ],
    "name": [
      "is too short (minimum is 2 characters)"
    ]
  }
}

error field is mandatory. Specific error codes and messages defined in another document.
error_description is localized extended description of error occurred. Optional.
error_attributes used to show fields that didn't pass validations. Optional.
For GET endpoints, parameters must be sent as a query string.
For POST, PUT, and DELETE endpoints, the parameters may be sent as a query string or in the request body with content type application/x-www-form-urlencoded. You may mix parameters between both the query string and request body if you wish to do so.
Parameters may be sent in any order.
If a parameter sent in both the query string and request body, the query string parameter will be used.

LIMITS

A 429 will be returned when either rather limit is violated.
Each route has a weight which determines for the number of requests each endpoint counts for. Heavier endpoints and endpoints that do operations on multiple symbols will have a heavier weight.
When a 429 is received, it's your obligation as an API to back off and not spam the API.
Repeatedly violating rate limits and/or failing to back off after receiving 429s will result in an automated IP ban (HTTP status 418).
IP bans are tracked and scale in duration for repeat offenders, from 2 minutes to 3 days.

Endpoint security type

Each endpoint has a security type that determines the how you will interact with it.
API-keys are passed into the Rest API via the APIKEY header.
API-keys and secret-keys are case sensitive.
API-keys can be configured to only access certain types of secure endpoints. For example, one API-key could be used for STATS only, while another API-key can access everything.

Security Type	Description
NONE	Endpoint can be accessed freely.
APIKEY_ONLY	Endpoint requires sending a valid API-Key.
SIGNED	Endpoint requires sending a valid API-Key and signature.

SIGNED Endpoint security

SIGNED endpoints require an additional header, Signature, to be sent.
Endpoints use HMAC SHA256 signatures. The HMAC SHA256 signature is a keyed HMAC SHA256 operation. Use your secretKey as the key and uri?totalParams as the value for the HMAC operation.
The signature is not case sensitive.
totalParams is defined as the query string concatenated with the request body.

SIGNED Endpoint Examples for POST /public/api/ver1/accounts/new

Here is a step-by-step example of how to send a valid signed payload from the Linux command line using echo, openssl, and curl.

Key	Value
apiKey	vmPUZE6mv9SD5VNHk4HlWFsOr6aKE2zvsw0MuIgwCIPy6utIco14y7Ju91duEh8A
secretKey	NhqPtmdSJYdKjVHjA7PZj4Mge3R5YNiP1e3UZjInClVN65XAbvqqM6A7H5fATj0j

Parameter	Value
type	binance
name	binance_account
api_key	XXXXXX
secret	YYYYYY

Example 1: As a query string

queryString: type=binance&name=binance_account&api_key=XXXXXX&secret=YYYYYY

HMAC SHA256 signature:

[linux]$ echo -n "/public/api/ver1/accounts/new?type=binance&name=binance_account&api_key=XXXXXX&secret=YYYYYY" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hmac "NhqPtmdSJYdKjVHjA7PZj4Mge3R5YNiP1e3UZjInClVN65XAbvqqM6A7H5fATj0j"
(stdin)= 30f678a157230290e00475cfffccbc92ae3659d94c145a2c0e9d0fa28f41c11a

curl command:

(HMAC SHA256)
[linux]$ curl -H "APIKEY: vmPUZE6mv9SD5VNHk4HlWFsOr6aKE2zvsw0MuIgwCIPy6utIco14y7Ju91duEh8A" -H "Signature: 30f678a157230290e00475cfffccbc92ae3659d94c145a2c0e9d0fa28f41c11a" -X POST 'https://api.3commas.io/public/api/ver1/accounts/new?type=binance&name=binance_account&api_key=XXXXXX&secret=YYYYYY'

Example 2: As a request body

requestBody: type=binance&name=binance_account&api_key=XXXXXX&secret=YYYYYY

HMAC SHA256 signature:

[linux]$ echo -n "/public/api/ver1/accounts/new?type=binance&name=binance_account&api_key=XXXXXX&secret=YYYYYY" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hmac "NhqPtmdSJYdKjVHjA7PZj4Mge3R5YNiP1e3UZjInClVN65XAbvqqM6A7H5fATj0j"
(stdin)= 30f678a157230290e00475cfffccbc92ae3659d94c145a2c0e9d0fa28f41c11a

curl command:

(HMAC SHA256)
[linux]$ curl -H "APIKEY: vmPUZE6mv9SD5VNHk4HlWFsOr6aKE2zvsw0MuIgwCIPy6utIco14y7Ju91duEh8A" -H "Signature: 30f678a157230290e00475cfffccbc92ae3659d94c145a2c0e9d0fa28f41c11a" -X POST 'https://api.3commas.io/public/api/ver1/accounts/new' -d 'type=binance&name=binance_account&api_key=XXXXXX&secret=YYYYYY'
