Cryptowatch API Integrations
Build and run workflows using the Cryptowatch API. Use 1000s of source-available triggers and actions across 2,000+ apps. Or write custom code to integrate any app or API in seconds.
Overview#
The Cryptowatch API offers real-time cryptocurrency market data across multiple exchanges, providing an extensive dataset for traders and developers. With Pipedream, you can harness this data to create automated workflows that react to market changes, analyze trends, or synchronize data across platforms. Whether you're automating trade strategies, alerting on price movements, or consolidating market analysis, Pipedream's serverless platform facilitates rapid development and execution of these tasks without managing infrastructure.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
cryptowatch: {
type: "app",
app: "cryptowatch",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.cryptowat.ch/markets/kraken/btceur/price`,
headers: {
"X-CW-API-Key": `${this.cryptowatch.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})

Example Use Cases#
Real-Time Price Alerts: Trigger a notification via email, SMS, or communication platforms like Slack when a cryptocurrency reaches a certain price. Using Pipedream's workflow, one can monitor price changes in real-time with the Cryptowatch API and send alerts through integrated services like Twilio or SendGrid.
Automated Trading Strategy: Execute trades on a connected exchange when certain market conditions are met. A Pipedream workflow could poll Cryptowatch for specific market indicators or price thresholds and use the exchange's API (e.g., Binance, Coinbase) to place trades automatically, ensuring timely market entry or exit.
Portfolio Valuation Sync: Update a Google Sheet or Airtable with the latest portfolio values by fetching current prices from Cryptowatch. A scheduled Pipedream workflow can regularly pull data for your assets and update the cells in your spreadsheet, keeping your portfolio valuation up to date with minimal effort.
Authentication#
Cryptowatch uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Cryptowatch account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Cryptowatch APIs in both code and no-code steps.
Once you've created an account, you can generate an API key and use it to link your API usage with your account.
