Parameters

Path Parameters

tickerstring•Required

The ticker parameter in this API request refers to the unique identifier of the cryptocurrency to which you are making the request. It is included in the URL of the request and helps to specify the exact cryptocurrency that you want to retrieve data for. The ticker is typically a short code that uniquely identifies the cryptocurrency, or the token and it's network/blockchain.

For example, btc is the ticker for Bitcoin, and trc20/usdt is the ticker for USDT over TRC-20. Having this in mind, a request for USDT over TRC-20 will look like this: https://api.cryptapi.io/trc20/usdt/create/.

Example:btc
