What is API?

Bitstamp application programming interface (API) allows our clients to access and control their accounts, using custom written software.

Response codes

Response code is a key that can be appended to an API response as response_code (string). Additionally, also explanation may or may not be included as the response_explanation (string) key, which defines further explanation to what has gone wrong when processing a request.

Below is the list of all available response codes and it's explanations:

API0018X-Auth-Timestamp header is invalidCheck the format of X-Auth-Timestamp header.
API0019Content-Type header is not acceptedPlease specify the correct content type.
API0020Content-Type header should not be presentPlease make sure you're not sending any body in the request.
API0021Please make sure url query string is not too longPlease make sure the total length of the url does not exceed 2000 characters.

x_auth

Format: BITSTAMP {api_key}

Security Scheme Type: API Key
Header parameter name: X-Auth

x_auth_nonce

Client generated random nonce:

  • lowercase,

  • 36 char string,

  • each nonce can be used only once within a timeframe of 150 seconds.

Security Scheme Type: API Key
Header parameter name: X-Auth-Nonce

x_auth_signature

sha256.hmac({string_to_sign}, {api_secret})

{string_to_sign} is your signature message.

Content-Type should not be added to the string if request.body is empty.

The following have to be combined into a single string:

"BITSTAMP" + " " + api_key + 
HTTP Verb + 
url.host + 
url.path + 
url.query + 
Content-Type + 
X-Auth-Nonce + 
X-Auth-Timestamp + 
X-Auth-Version + 
request.body
Security Scheme Type: API Key
Header parameter name: X-Auth-Signature

x_auth_subaccount_id

Make requests for specific sub account. Set this header to the sub account Unique ID.

Security Scheme Type: API Key
Header parameter name: X-Auth-Subaccount-Id

x_auth_timestamp

Request departure timestamp UTC in milliseconds.

If timestamp is more than 150 seconds from current server time, it will not allow to make the request.

Security Scheme Type: API Key
Header parameter name: X-Auth-Timestamp

x_auth_version

Format: v2

Security Scheme Type: API Key
Header parameter name: X-Auth-Version

x_content_type

Please note that you you should not set Content-Type header if there is no body.

Security Scheme Type: API Key
Header parameter name: Content-Type

Authentication examples

Note: if the request body is empty, the Content-Type header has to be removed both from the headers and from the signature

Changelog

2023-10-12

  • New API changes due to compliance with Travel Rule requirements:
  • All endpoints for creating new orders have an optional client_order_id field. If submitted, up until now client_order_id had to be unique. We are deprecating the checking of duplicate client_order_id and will allow duplicates beginning November 2023. If you currently rely on us checking for duplicates and us rejecting those, this change may cause you to submit multiple orders so please make the necessary changes to not rely on that check.
  • New API endpoints that enable you to access full Earn (Staking and Lending) functionality.

2023-09-29

  • Added revoke_all_api_keys as a kill switch functionality to terminate all API connectivity:
    • POST /api/v2/revoke_all_api_keys/

2023-09-25

  • Updated GTD order description by noting that the orders expire at midnight:
    • POST /api/v2/buy/{market_symbol}/
