exchangeratesapi's Introduction

Exchange Rates API

Exchange rates API is a free service for current and historical foreign exchange rates published by the European Central Bank.

Usage

Lates & specific date rates

Get the latest foreign exchange rates.

GET /latest

Get historical rates for any day since 1999.

GET /2018-03-26

Rates are quoted against the Euro by default. Quote against a different currency by setting the base parameter in your request.

GET /latest?base=USD

Request specific exchange rates by setting the symbols parameter.

GET /latest?symbols=USD,GBP

Rates history

Get historical rates for a time period.

GET /history?start_at=2018-01-01&end_at=2018-09-01

Limit results to specific exchange rates to save bandwidth with the symbols parameter.

GET /history?start_at=2018-01-01&end_at=2018-09-01&symbols=ILS,JPY

Quote the historical rates against a different currency.

GET /history?start_at=2018-01-01&end_at=2018-09-01&base=USD

Client side usage

The primary use case is client side. For instance, with money.js in the browser

let demo = () => {
  let rate = fx(1).from("GBP").to("USD")
  alert("£1 = $" + rate.toFixed(4))
}

fetch('https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest')
  .then((resp) => resp.json())
  .then((data) => fx.rates = data.rates)
  .then(demo)

API wrappers

PHP - https://github.com/benmajor/ExchangeRatesAPI
Laravel (PHP) - https://github.com/ash-jc-allen/laravel-exchange-rates

Stack

Exchange rates API is built upon Sanic to achieve high throughput. The current setup can asyncronously handle thousands of requests per second.

Libraries used

Deployment

Virtualenv

pipenv shell

Install packages

pipenv install

Load in initial data & Scheduler

The scheduler will keep your database up to date hourly with information from European Central bank. It will download the last 90 days worth of data every hour.

The reference rates are usually updated around 16:00 CET on every working day, except on TARGET closing days. They are based on a regular daily concertation procedure between central banks across Europe, which normally takes place at 14:15 CET.

On initialization it will check the database. If it's empty all the historic rates will be downloaded and records created in the database.

Development

gunicorn exchangerates.app:app --worker-class sanic.worker.GunicornWorker --reload

exchangeratesapi's Issues

Multiple base currencies

Is there any chance I can Get output with two base currencies eg.
https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=EUR,USD&symbols=GBP,GBP ?

Redirect loop when base is PLN and symbol is USD

This URL address causes redirect loop: https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=PLN&symbols=USD
I haven't noticed problems with other symbols, but they can occur.

Cross-Origin Request Blocked

Hi,
I keep getting this error when trying to access your APIs

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=EUR. (Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing)

My script:

async asyncData({ $axios, error, params }) {
    try {
       const { data } = await $axios.get(
        'https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest',
        {
          params: {
            base: 'EUR'
          }
        }
      )
      const rates = data.rates
      })
      return {
        rates
      }
    } catch (e) {
      error({
        statusCode: 503,
        message: 'API connection error'
      })
    }
  }

Latest Rates are dated 1 day behind

As of Tuesday 10/29 the date has been one day behind.
For example:
Rates on Tuesday 10/29 are dated 10/28.
Rates on Wednesday 10/30 are dated 10/29.

This is different than in the past and just started happening.

not working after upload to google play

Hi everyone,

I used that awesome api for a part of my app. It is working well with usb wired device over android studio,

When it comes to publish the app on google play, api is not working.

I don't want to use 1000 request/month apis and i'm stucked, any suggestions welcome..!

not working when second symbol is EURO

below apis aren't working:
https://exchangeratesapi.io/api/latest?symbols=INR,EUR
https://exchangeratesapi.io/api/latest?symbols=USD,EUR
https://exchangeratesapi.io/api/latest?symbols=JPY,EUR

however it works when base is not EURO
ex:
https://exchangeratesapi.io/api/latest?symbols=JPY,EUR&base=USD

please support base EURO as well.
Thanks in advance:)

Does service work?

Doesn't gunicorn throttles sanic?

Isn't Gunicorn a throttling factor when using Sanic? Since it isn't ASGI like Uvicorn or Hypercorn?

Exchange rates not up to date, stuck at 2019-02-20

Hi,
Looks like the issue has surfaced again.
Query: https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=USD
Result:
{"base":"USD","date":"2019-02-20","rates":{"ISK":119.6438017986,

Symbols are invalid for date

Using the following request GET https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=EUR&symbols=USD,HKD,IDR,INR,MYR,SGD,JPY,CZK,AUD,EUR,SEK,GBP,NOK,PLN,DKK,BRL,CAD,ZAR,MXN,NZD,CNY,CHF produces the following error:

{
error: "Symbols 'USD,HKD,IDR,INR,MYR,SGD,JPY,CZK,AUD,EUR,SEK,GBP,NOK,PLN,DKK,BRL,CAD,ZAR,MXN,NZD,CNY,CHF' are invalid for date 2019-10-28."
}

I'm not quite sure what the error means? When leaving out the symbols, everything is working fine.

Update: When removing the symbol which is base, the request works. Is this the intended behavior?

Need to know the supporting currencies of the api.exchangeratesapi.io API.

Kindly provide the list of currencies supporting this API.

Issue page not redirected properly

Hi,

I was using https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=ILS&symbols=USD but it doesn't work since yesterday.

Although if you invert the order of the arguments... https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?symbols=USD&base=ILS it works!

What happened ?

Requesting historical data for a given day, response doesn't include 'date'

Hello, I wonder if it's intentional that when requesting historical data from this endpoint: https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/, the response only includes the 'base', and the 'rates', but not the 'date' it's belonging to.
I know I can figure it out, since I requested it, but if it was included in the response, that would be easier to consume and much appreciated.
And btw thanks for this service! Really awesome!

Returned values are not gradually dated.

Round-off error on large numbers

Rounds off large numbers with errors.

For example:
Base: IDR
"USD": 7.1e-5

There should be more decimal places for these currencies.

Currencies are different from Google

When I try to get USD -> BRL the value always is different from the base value on Google. Is it an issue?

incompatibile base rate

Hello,
1st things 1st: thanks!

There are a few currencies that are not reliable because of their distance from the EUR value. For instance the Indonesian Rupiah

https://exchangeratesapi.io/api/latest?base=IDR

so, while it makes sense to convert EUR to IDR (*17059.77), the inverse is not true (should be ~ 0,000059, but the api is limited to 4 decimals)

kind regards

PKR is missing!

Love the service. But PKR currency is missing. Any chance you can add that?

What about exchange rates on weekends?

I am trying to display a graph of exchange rates of the past 30 days. I know there is no data on weekends but when I try to request something like:

https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/2018-11-18?base=USD&symbols=JPY

I get the rates for 2018-11-16.

So can I get this behaviour for requesting over a time period? For example:

https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/history?start_at=2018-10-20&end_at=2018-11-18&symbols=JPY&base=USD

Currently I only get 20 rates, instead of 30. Can the rates on weekends be provided as well? Just use the same value as the Friday before.

Can't switch between base currencies

I'm not able to have multiple base currencies or set them through a spinner, is it even possible?

Thank you!

This isn't an issue, more of a note to say thank you so much for creating this fork and hosting this free service!

Returns Wrong FX Rate GBP - EUR

I am testing this with an Excel VBA Macro.

For GBP - EUR 31-Dec-2017 the API returns "1.00" instead of the correct FX Rate. Could you please verify this?

Exchange Rate Ordering

Hi,

A year ago, @madisvain commented in #23 (comment) that the result is ordered by date ASC.

With this request (and any other request), the exchange rates are not ordered.

Exchange rates not up to date, stuck at 2019-01-23

Isue:

Is this project dead now?

Is not working anymore for me and the website says "Invalid website" :(

Getting Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check when using during development

I keep getting this error when trying to access your APIs while developing.

Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=MYR' from origin 'https://*.dev' has been blocked by CORS policy: Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

JPY base not working when symbols are specified

This isn't working for me:
https://exchangeratesapi.io/api/latest?base=JPY&symbols=EUR,NOK

The equivalent URL used to work in the old fixer.io API.

Latest rates stuck on 2018-09-06

If I request the latest rates using https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest the API is only returning rates from the 2018-09-06 onward.

The same thing happens if I request historical data, I can get all the rates up until 2018-09-06 only. Any historical date requests post this date incorrectly return the rates for 2018-09-06.

No new rates since 2019-03-20

Looks like the same issue has arisen (surprisingly on the same day of the month as last time):

https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=GBP

Says: "date":"2019-03-20"

Cannot search with TWD currency

Dates Prior To 2008-08-28 returns Internal Server Error

Maybe not the right place to mention this, but any dates prior to 2008-08-28 return an internal server error. I recall that it was supposed to work as far back as 1999.

Single "symbol" not working

If only a single "symbol" is given, there is an error:

Working (two symbols):

https://exchangeratesapi.io/api/latest?base=USD&symbols=CHF,USD

Giving Error (single symbol):
https://exchangeratesapi.io/api/latest?base=USD&symbols=CHF

Requesting Currency List Endpoint

I'd really like it if I could request a list of currencies from the API itself. I need this in my app because I want to populate two dropdown menus with the list of currencies: one for the base currency and the other for the currency to convert to.

EUR as base currency issue

I've been having a play with your Exchange Rate API - a great tool, thanks so much!

One thing I noticed is that there's an issue with EUR as the base currency where it doesn't have an exchange rate for itself.

I've been dealing with a small set of currencies, and for each I'm getting the latest exchange rates for all the currencies, I'm dealing with.

For example, my currencies are: GBP, USD, EUR, IDR, THB
For each I want a conversion to every other currency (including itself).

For all the currencies I've tried this works fine using the endpoint /latest?base=xxx&symbols=xxx,xxx,xxx,...

However, for EUR if I include it as one of the symbols it fails:

/latest?base=EUR&symbols=GBP,USD,EUR,IDR,THB

I get a BadRequest response and a message saying that rates for the requested currencies on this date are not available. If I remove EUR from the list of symbols:

/latest?base=EUR&symbols=GBP,USD,IDR,THB

Then it works perfectly.

For all the other currencies I've tried requested itself as one of the symbols works fine and just returns a rate of 1.

Not sure why this is, but thought I would let you know.

Historic data

Is there any way to get the exchange rates for an specifc date period?

By the URL below I am able to get the exchange rate for USD and BRL for the date of 2018-09-12, would there be any way to get these exchanges rate from 2018-09-12 until 2018-09-19 for example?

https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/2018-09-12?symbols=USD,BRL

AED missing :(

Well not a bug, but can you also include AED please. The API is perfect for me other than the missing AED rates.
or is there any work around for it ?

Missing dates when requesting historic data

Hi, i'm having an issue where calling the historic data doesnt return all of the day between the two dates.

For example if i call this: https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/history?start_at=2018-02-02&end_at=2018-02-10&base=USD&symbols=GBP,EUR

It doesn't return all of the days between those two dates.

Am i missing something?

No weekend exchange rates?

Hi,

I'm not entirely sure if this is an issue or just me not understanding something. I can't seem to get any exchange rates for dates on weekends. For example, using the following URL for 2019-11-10, I am returned the results for 2019-11-08:
https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/2019-11-10?&base=EUR

`/latest?base=USD` fails

While other requests works (eg. https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=CAD), https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=USD shows "redirected you too many times" error.

Interestingly, https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/2019-06-19?base=USD works properly.

Sorry being so pragmatic.

Too many redirects when EUR is the base symbol

Hello.

First of all thank you for this awesome service!

I noticed that starting from today if we do a GET request to 'https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=EUR&symbols=USD' it does not work, and you end up getting redirected forever.

On the other hand 'https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=USD&symbols=EUR' works fine.

Not getting the recent the Exchange Rate in the latest API

Please Added UZS currency

Ty so much for this repository.

Error: Method OPTIONS not allowed for URL /latest

I am getting this error when calling:

      let response = await this.$axios.post('https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest', {
        headers: {
          'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*'
        }
      })

Any ideas?

It follows the same principles:

Getting data from the European Central bank
Exposing access to the latest, specific date and history
Free and Open Source!

I'd love if you could reference this app in your website as an alternative API, or even maybe we could share the same Heroku App/DB :)

Thanks so much for the app and inspiration ❤️
