Binance is a cryptocurrency exchange that provides a platform for trading various cryptocurrencies. Binance API is a set of programming instructions that allow software to interact with the Binance platform.
The API allows developers to access certain account information, place orders, and cancel orders.
API stands for “Application Programming Interface”. An API is a set of programming instructions that allow software to interact with other software.
The Binance API allows developers to access certain account information, place orders, and cancel orders.
The Binance API is accessed via HTTP requests to the Binance API server. The requests are signed with an API key that is associated with your Binance account.
The API key is used to authenticate your requests and identify you as the owner of the data being accessed or modified.
The Binance API documentation describes the various endpoints and parameters that can be used in each request. The documentation also provides example code in various programming languages to show how to sign and make requests to the Binance API server.
In order to use the Binance API, you will need to create a new account on the Binance website and generate an API key. Once you have generated an API key, you can use it to make requests to the Binance API server.
The following is an example of how to use the Binance API in Python:
import requests
# Generate your own api key and secret at https://www.binance.com/userCenter/createApi.html
api_key = “YOUR_API_KEY”
api_secret = “YOUR_API_SECRET”
# Create an instance of the BinanceClient class
client = binance_client.BinanceClient(api_key, api_secret)
# Get account information including balances, orders, and trade history
account = client.get_account()
print(account)
