What Is API on Coinbase?

An API, or Application Programming Interface, is a set of programming instructions that allow software to interact with other software. In the case of Coinbase, our API allows our customers to access the data and functionality of our platform in a secure and programmatic way.

Coinbase’s API is a Rest API that uses OAuth2 for authentication. We also offer a WebSocket feed for real-time market data.
