About this Item

About this Cloud Hub Solution:

The Fixer API is a powerful tool that provides real-time exchange rate data for 170 world currencies. It is powered by 15+ exchange rate data sources and offers multiple endpoints to cater to different use cases.

Available Endpoints/symbols Returns all available currencies

/latest Returns real-time exchange rate data for all available or a specific set of currencies.

/convert Allows for conversion of any amount from one currency to another.

/{date} Returns historical exchange rate data for all available or a specific set of currencies.

/timeseries Returns daily historical exchange rate data between two specified dates for all available or a specific set of currencies.

/fluctuation Returns fluctuation data between two specified dates for all available or a specific set of currencies.

With these endpoints, the Fixer API provides a comprehensive solution for exchanging and converting currencies, as well as analyzing historical exchange rate data and fluctuations.

Supported Symbols

The Fixer API comes with a constantly updated endpoint returning all available currencies. To access this list, make a request to the API's symbols endpoint.

  "symbols": {
    "AED": "United Arab Emirates Dirham",
    "AFN": "Afghan Afghani",
    "ALL": "Albanian Lek",

Tips

To minimize bandwidth usage, you can limit the number of output currencies to a specific set of your choice on most API endpoints. To achieve this, simply append the Fixer API's symbols parameter to your API request and set it to one or more comma-separated currency codes.
