Introduction

API Endpoint

https://api.coinbase.com/v2/

Coinbase provides a simple and powerful REST API to integrate bitcoin, bitcoin cash, litecoin and ethereum payments into your business or application.

This API reference provides information on available endpoints and how to interact with it. To read more about the API, visit our API documentation.

Note: If you’re still using legacy Coinbase API (v1), you should access relevant API reference and Wallet API.

Authentication

This API supports two modes of authentication:

API key - Useful to access your own account
OAuth2 (Coinbase Connect) - Used to build applications for Coinbase users

OAuth2 (Coinbase Connect)

curl https://api.coinbase.com/v2/user \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer abd90df5f27a7b170cd775abf89d632b350b7c1c9d53e08b340cd9832ce52c2c"

OAuth2 is recommended when you’re creating an application for others on top of Coinbase platform. This authentication provides a secure and easy to use authentication flow for users.

OAuth2 requests must be authenticated with a valid access token passed as bearer token. To use the bearer token, construct a normal HTTPS request and include an Authorization header with the value of Bearer. Signing is not required.

API Key

API key is recommend if you only need to access your own account. All API key requests must be signed and contain the following headers:

CB-ACCESS-KEY The api key as a string
CB-ACCESS-SIGN The user generated message signature (see below)
CB-ACCESS-TIMESTAMP A timestamp for your request

All request bodies should have content type application/json and be valid JSON.

The CB-ACCESS-SIGN header is generated by creating a sha256 HMAC using the secret key on the prehash string timestamp + method + requestPath + body (where + represents string concatenation). The timestamp value is the same as the CB-ACCESS-TIMESTAMP header.

The body is the request body string or omitted if there is no request body (typically for GET requests).

The method should be UPPER CASE.

The CB-ACCESS-TIMESTAMP header MUST be number of seconds since Unix Epoch.

Your timestamp must be within 30 seconds of the api service time or your request will be considered expired and rejected. We recommend using the time endpoint to query for the API server time if you believe there many be time skew between your server and the API servers.

Interacting with the API

Status codes

200 OK Successful request
201 Created New object saved
204 No content Object deleted
400 Bad Request Returns JSON with the error message
401 Unauthorized Couldn’t authenticate your request
402 2FA Token required Re-try request with user’s 2FA token as CB-2FA-Token header
403 Invalid scope User hasn’t authorized necessary scope
404 Not Found No such object
429 Too Many Requests Your connection is being rate limited
500 Internal Server Error Something went wrong
503 Service Unavailable Your connection is being throttled or the service is down for maintenance

Making requests

As per RESTful design patterns, Coinbase API implements following HTTP verbs:

GET - Read resources
POST - Create new resources
PUT - Modify existing resources
DELETE - Remove resources

When making requests, arguments can be passed as params, form data or JSON with correct Content-Type header.

Most resources are bound to a specific account belonging to the authenticated user. As the user can control which accounts are accessible accounts for both API keys and OAuth applications (coming soon), you should make sure you have the access to right account with GET /v2/accounts/ endpoint. Otherwise a 404 will be returned.

CORS

Coinbase API v2 supports cross-origin HTTP requests which is commonly referred as CORS. This means that you can call API resources using Javascript from any browser. While this allows many interesting use cases, it’s important to remember that you should never expose private API keys to 3rd parties. CORS is mainly useful with unauthenticated endpoints (e.g. Bitcoin price information) and OAuth2 client side applications.

Localization

Coinbase API supports localization for error messages and other strings. Localization is defined in each request with Accept-Language header. Accepted values are currently:

de - Deutsch
en - English (default)
es - Español
es-mx - Español - Méjico
fr - Français
id - bahasa Indonesia
it - Italiano
nl - Nederlands
pt - Português
pt-br - Português - Brazil

Numbers, currency and datetime don’t rely on localization so they will always be returned in standard format.

Fields

IDs and referencing other objects

{
  "id": "2bbf394c-193b-5b2a-9155-3b4732659ede",
  ...
  "resource": "account",
  "resource_path": "/v2/accounts/2bbf394c-193b-5b2a-9155-3b4732659ede"
}

All resource IDs are represented in UUID format. Together with IDs, all resources have also a resource field which represents the resource type and resource_path for the location under api.coinbase.com. These values can be useful when building wrappers around the API or when linking to other resources.

Money hash

{
    "amount": "39.59000000",
    "currency": "BTC"
}

Money values are represented by a hash object which contains amount and currency fields. Amount is always returned as a string which you should be careful when parsing to have correct decimal precision. Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin and Ethereum values will have 8 decimal points and fiat currencies will have two.

Timestamps

All timestamp are returned in ISO8601 format in UTC with fields ending in postfix _at. Example: "created_at": "2015-07-01T00:55:47Z"

Enumerable values

Some fields like type usually have a constant set of values. As Coinbase is actively growing and adding features, new values can be added or removed over time and you should take this into account when designing implementation. A good example is the Transaction resource which has multiple type values and new ones are added as new features are added to Coinbase.

Lists

Similar to enumerable values, list values can be added or removed over time. Instead of hardcoding for specific values, your implementation should be flexible enough to take these requirements into account.

Scopes

Both API key and OAuth2 authentication require that you obtain correct permissions (scopes) to access different API endpoints.

All authenticated endpoints, except GET /user, require a specific scope to access them. Some endpoints might also have additional scopes for additional information or access. In general, permissions follow the service-name:resource:action pattern, where the service is wallet for the main Coinbase API.

With OAuth2, scopes should be considered as grants: Users can select which scopes they grant access to for the application. The application might need to request new scopes over the lifecycle of the authorization. To see which permissions the user has granted, you can use GET /user/auth endpoint.

As a general rule, you should only ask for scopes which your application needs and avoid asking for access to unnessary ones. Users more readily grant access to limited, clearly described scopes.

Pagination

curl https://api.coinbase.com/v2/accounts \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer abd90df5f27a7b170cd775abf89d632b350b7c1c9d53e08b340cd9832ce52c2c'

Example response

{
  "pagination": {
    "ending_before": null,
    "starting_after": null,
    "limit": 25,
    "order": "desc",
    "previous_uri": null,
    "next_uri": "/v2/accounts?&limit=25&starting_after=5d5aed5f-b7c0-5585-a3dd-a7ed9ef0e414"
  },
  "data": [
    ...
  ]
}

All GET endpoints which return an object list support cursor based pagination with pagination information inside a pagination object. This means that to get all objects, you need to paginate through the results by always using the id of the last resource in the list as a starting_after parameter for the next call. To make it easier, the API will contruct the next call into next_uri together with all the currently used pagination parameters. You know that you have paginated all the results when the response’s next_uri is empty. While using cursor based pagination might seem weird compared to many APIs it protects from the situation when the resulting object list changes during pagination (new resource gets added or removed).

Default limit is set to 25 but values up to 100 are permitted. Due to permissions and access level control, the response list might in some cases return less objects than specified by the limit parameter. This is normal behaviour and should be expected.

The result list is in descending order by default (newest item first) but it can be reversed by supplying order=asc instead.

Arguments

Parameter	Description
`limit` optional	Number of results per call. Accepted values: 0 - 100. Default 25
`order` optional	Result order. Accepted values: `desc` (default), `asc`
`starting_after` optional	A cursor for use in pagination. `starting_after` is an resource ID that defines your place in the list.
`ending_before` optional	A cursor for use in pagination. `ending_before` is an resource ID that defines your place in the list.

Errors

Error response

Generic error response (4xx, 5xx)

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "id": "not_found",
      "message": "Not found"
    }
  ]
}

Validation failed (400)

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "id": "validation_error",
      "message": "Please enter a valid email or bitcoin address"
    }
  ]
}

Error with document link

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "id": "invalid_scope",
      "message": "Invalid scope",
      "url": "http://developers.coinbase.com/api#permissions"
    }
  ]
}

All error messages will return both machine (id) and human readable (message) error message. All errors, except validation_error, return only one error. Some errors will also have an optional link to the documentation (url).

validation_error with status code 400 is returned when the validation of the resource fails on POST or PUT requests. Response contains errors field with a list of errors.

Important: Different error types (id) can be added and removed over time so you should make sure your application accepts new ones as well.

Error id	Code	Description
`two_factor_required`	402	When sending money over 2fa limit
`param_required`	400	Missing parameter
`validation_error`	400	Unable to validate POST/PUT
`invalid_request`	400	Invalid request
`personal_details_required`	400	User’s personal detail required to complete this request
`identity_verification_required`	400	Identity verification is required to complete this request
`jumio_verification_required`	400	Document verification is required to complete this request
`jumio_face_match_verification_required`	400	Document verification including face match is required to complete this request
`unverified_email`	400	User has not verified their email
`authentication_error`	401	Invalid auth (generic)
`invalid_token`	401	Invalid Oauth token
`revoked_token`	401	Revoked Oauth token
`expired_token`	401	Expired Oauth token
`invalid_scope`	403	User hasn’t authenticated necessary scope
`not_found`	404	Resource not found
`rate_limit_exceeded`	429	Rate limit exceeded
`internal_server_error`	500	Internal server error

Other errors

OAuth2

{"error": "invalid_request", "error_description": "The request is missing a required parameter, includes an unsupported parameter value, or is otherwise malformed."}

When authenticating or refreshing access tokens, OAuth2, will follow different error format.

Warnings

Example warning

{
  "warnings": [
    {
      "id": "missing_version",
      "message": "Please supply API version (YYYY-MM-DD) as CB-Version header",
      "url": "https://developers.coinbase.com/api/v2#versioning"
    }
  ]
}

Responses can include a warnings parameter to notify the developer of best practices, implementation suggestions or deprecation warnings. While you don’t need show warnings to the user, they are usually something you need to act on so it’s recommended that you add them to admin email alerts.

Versioning

curl https://api.coinbase.com/v2/accounts \
    -H "CB-VERSION: 2015-04-08" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer abd90df5f27a7b170cd775abf89d632b350b7c1c9d53e08b340cd9832ce52c2c"

All API calls should be made with a CB-VERSION header which guarantees that your call is using the correct API version. Version is passed in as a date (UTC) of the implementation in YYYY-MM-DD format.

If no version is passed, the version from user’s API settings will be used and a warning will be shown. Under no circumstance should you always pass in the current date, as that will return the current version which might break your implementation.

For information about notification versioning, refer to notification documentation.

Rate limiting

Rate limiting error (429)

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "id": "rate_limit_exceeded",
      "message": "Too many requests"
    }
  ]
}

The Coinbase API is rate limited to prevent abuse that would degrade our ability to maintain consistent API performance for all users. By default, each API key or app is rate limited at 10,000 requests per hour. If your requests are being rate limited, HTTP response code 429 will be returned with an rate_limit_exceeded error.

Changelog

Recent changes and additions to Coinbase API v2. Changes marked with [Versioned] include a versioned change and are only available for applications that specify that version or later. Other changes are available for all versions.

2017-08-07

[Versioned] Removed the native_balance field on the account endpoints GET /v2/accounts and GET /v2/accounts/:account-id.

2017-05-19

[Versioned] Updated the currency field on the account endpoints GET /v2/accounts and GET /v2/accounts/:account-id from a string to an hash containing the currency code, name, color, and exponent.

2016-08-10

[Versioned] Updated POST /v2/accounts/:account-id/buys to return a different error if the buy is canceled immediately after the create/edit attempt. Previously, the API would return a 400 error with an id of invalid_request and a message of Buy canceled: <error_message>. Now, the API returns a 400 error with a descriptive id (e.g. unknown_error) and a message of <error_message>.

2016-05-16

[Versioned] Changed buy/sell/deposit/withdrawal fees field into fee which will include the total fee instead of an itemized list.
[Versioned] Changed validation_error status code from 422 to 400
[Versioned] Changed unverified_email status code from 401 to 400. Now all 401 codes can should lead to logging out the user.

Many resources, like transactions, have other resources linked to them. By default only the resource type (resource), id (id) and path (resource_path) are exposed which can be used to fetch the resource separately. In some cases it’s useful to expand the resource in the response body. While this might increase the request time and payload, it’s still faster than fetching several resources separately.

Resources are expanded by passing an array of fields to expand with expand parameter (e.g. ?expand[]=to&expand[]=account). This can be done both when fetching existing or creating new resources. If you want to expand all available resources, you can pass expand=all. This is useful with large and complex resources like transactions but it makes queries slower and increases the request payload size.

Notifications allow you to subscribe to updates regarding your OAuth application or API key. Notifications are sent as HTTP POST requests (webhooks) to a notification endpoint, which the developer can set for their OAuth application or API key settings.

Each notification contains the following information:

Type - Action that triggered the event
Data - Data of the resource at the time of the event
Additional data - Additional data associated with the event
User - Owner of the resource (useful with OAuth applications)
Account - Account of the resource
Delivery information

If notification delivery fails, it will be re-tried hourly up to three days. If you ever need to access notifications afterwards, you can query them using notification API endpoints. Content of the notification will not change even if the referenced resource changes over time.

To secure your notifications, you should obfuscate your notification URL and verify the origin of the callback by validating it against the Coinbase callback IP addresses and signature (CB-SIGNATURE header).

Account resource represents all of a user’s accounts, including bitcoin, bitcoin cash, litecoin and ethereum wallets, fiat currency accounts, and vaults. This is represented in the type field.

User can only have one primary account and its type can only be wallet.

Creates a new address for an account. As all the arguments are optinal, it’s possible just to do a empty POST which will create a new address. This is handy if you need to create new receive addresses for an account on-demand.

Addresses can be created for all account types. With fiat accounts, funds will be received with Instant Exchange.

Transaction resource represents an event on the account. It can be either negative or positive on amount depending if it credited or debited funds on the account. If there’s another party, the transaction will have either to or from field. For certain types of transactions, also linked resources with type value as field will be included in the payload (example buy and sell). All these fields are expandable.

Important: As transactions represent multiple objects, resources with new type values can and will be added over time. Also new status values might be added. See more about enumerable values.

Transaction types currently available:

send - Sent bitcoin/bitcoin cash/litecoin/ethereum to a bitcoin/bitcoin cash/litecoin/ethereum address or email (documentation)
request - Requested bitcoin/bitcoin cash/litecoin/ethereum from a user or email (documentation)
transfer - Transfered funds between two of a user’s accounts (documentation)
buy - Bought bitcoin, bitcoin cash, litecoin or ethereum (documentation)
sell - Sold bitcoin, bitcoin cash, litecoin or ethereum (documentation)
fiat_deposit - Deposited funds into a fiat account from a financial institution (documentation)
fiat_withdrawal - Withdrew funds from a fiat account (documentation)
exchange_deposit - Deposited money into GDAX
exchange_withdrawal - Withdrew money from GDAX
vault_withdrawal - Withdrew funds from a vault account
More to be added soon

Transactions statuses vary based on the type of the transaction. As both types and statuses can change over time, we recommend that you use details field for constructing human readable descriptions of transactions. Currently available statuses are:

pending - Pending transactions (e.g. a send or a buy)
completed - Completed transactions (e.g. a send or a buy)
failed - Failed transactions (e.g. failed buy)
expired - Conditional transaction expired due to external factors
canceled - Transaction was canceled
waiting_for_signature - Vault withdrawal is waiting for approval
waiting_for_clearing - Vault withdrawal is waiting to be cleared

Send funds to a bitcoin address, bitcoin cash address, litecoin address, ethereum address, or email address. No transaction fees are required for off blockchain bitcoin transactions.

It’s recommended to always supply a unique idem field for each transaction. This prevents you from sending the same transaction twice if there has been an unexpected network outage or other issue.

When used with OAuth2 authentication, this endpoint requires two factor authentication unless used with wallet:transactions:send:bypass-2fa scope.

If the user is able to buy bitcoin, they can send funds from their fiat account using instant exchange feature. Buy fees will be included in the created transaction and the recipient will receive the user defined amount.

Buy resource represents a purchase of bitcoin, bitcoin cash, litecoin or ethereum using a payment method (either a bank or a fiat account). Each committed buy also has an associated transaction.

Buys can be started with commit: false which is useful when displaying the confirmation for a buy. These buys will never complete and receive an associated transaction unless they are committed separately.

When using this endpoint, it is possible that our system will not be able to process the buy as normal. If this is the case, our system will return a 400 error with an id of unknown_error.

Buys a user-defined amount of bitcoin, bitcoin cash, litecoin or ethereum.

There are two ways to define buy amounts–you can use either the amount or the total parameter:

When supplying amount, you’ll get the amount of bitcoin, bitcoin cash, litecoin or ethereum defined. With amount it’s recommended to use BTC or ETH as the currency value, but you can always specify a fiat currency and and the amount will be converted to BTC or ETH respectively.
When supplying total, your payment method will be debited the total amount and you’ll get the amount in BTC or ETH after fees have been reduced from the total. With total it’s recommended to use the currency of the payment method as the currency parameter, but you can always specify a different currency and it will be converted.

Given the price of digital currency depends on the time of the call and on the amount of purchase, it’s recommended to use the commit: false parameter to create an uncommitted buy to show the confirmation for the user or get the final quote, and commit that with a separate request.

If you need to query the buy price without locking in the buy, you can use quote: true option. This returns an unsaved buy and unlike commit: false, this buy can’t be completed. This option is useful when you need to show the detailed buy price quote for the user when they are filling a form or similar situation.

Completes a buy that is created in commit: false state.

If the exchange rate has changed since the buy was created, this call will fail with the error “The exchange rate updated while you were waiting. The new total is shown below”.

The buy’s total will also be updated. You can repeat the /commit call to accept the new values and start the buy at the new rates.

Sells a user-defined amount of bitcoin, bitcoin cash, litecoin or ethereum.

There are two ways to define sell amounts–you can use either the amount or the total parameter:

When supplying amount, you’ll get the amount of bitcoin, bitcoin cash, litecoin or ethereum defined. With amount it’s recommended to use BTC or ETH as the currency value, but you can always specify a fiat currency and the amount will be converted to BTC or ETH respectively.
When supplying total, your payment method will be credited the total amount and you’ll get the amount in BTC or ETH after fees have been reduced from the subtotal. With total it’s recommended to use the currency of the payment method as the currency parameter, but you can always specify a different currency and it will be converted.

Given the price of digital currency depends on the time of the call and amount of the sell, it’s recommended to use the commit: false parameter to create an uncommitted sell to get a quote and then to commit that with a separate request.

If you need to query the sell price without locking in the sell, you can use quote: true option. This returns an unsaved sell and unlike commit: false, this sell can’t be completed. This option is useful when you need to show the detailed sell price quote for the user when they are filling a form or similar situation.

Completes a sell that is created in commit: false state.

If the exchange rate has changed since the sell was created, this call will fail with the error “The exchange rate updated while you were waiting. The new total is shown below”.

The sell’s total will also be updated. You can repeat the /commit call to accept the new values and commit the sell at the new rates.

Withdrawal resource represents a withdrawal of funds using a payment method (e.g. a bank). Each committed withdrawal also has a associated transaction.

Withdrawal can be started with commit: false which is useful when displaying the confirmation for a withdrawal. These withdrawals will never complete and receive an associated transaction unless they are committed separately.

Payment method resource represents the different kinds of payment methods that can be used when buying and selling bitcoin, bitcoin cash, litecoin or ethereum.

As fiat accounts can be used for buying and selling, they have an associated payment method. This type of a payment method will also have a fiat_account reference to the actual account.

Currently available type values:

ach_bank_account - Regular US bank account
sepa_bank_account - European SEPA bank account
ideal_bank_account - iDeal bank account (Europe)
fiat_account - Fiat nominated Coinbase account
bank_wire - Bank wire (US only)
credit_card - Credit card (can’t be used for buying/selling)
secure3d_card - Secure3D verified payment card
eft_bank_account - Canadian EFT bank account
interac - Interac Online for Canadian bank accounts

If the user has obtained optional wallet:payment-methods:limits permission, an additional field, limits, will be embedded into payment method data. It will contain information about buy, instant buy, sell and deposit limits (there’s no limits for withdrawals at this time). As each one of these can have several limits you should always look for the lowest remaining value when performing the relevant action.

Fields	Description
`id` string	Resource ID
`type` string, enumerable	Payment method type
`Name` string	Payment method type
`currency` string	Payment method’s native currency
`primary_buy` boolean	Is primary buying method?
