Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for Amdoren Currency API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. The Amdoren Currency API is a free currency conversion service supporting more than 150 fiat currencies. Its single GET endpoint returns the converted amount between a source and destination currency at the current exchange rate, authenticated by an api_key query parameter against www.amdoren.com/api. Typical consumers are budgeting apps, travel tools, e-commerce checkouts, and AI agents that need a low-friction conversion lookup without the overhead of a multi-endpoint FX provider.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Amdoren Currency API API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Localised E-Commerce Pricing

International storefronts can show prices in the buyer's home currency by calling /currency.php with the catalogue currency, the buyer's currency, and the price. The single-endpoint surface keeps the integration cheap — most teams add it during checkout localisation work in an afternoon. Useful for low-volume merchants who do not need the broader feature set of Stripe FX or Wise.

Call GET /currency.php with from='USD', to='EUR', amount=49.99 and return the converted EUR amount as a string with two decimal places

Travel and Budgeting Apps

Personal-finance and travel apps can offer a 'how much is this in my currency' feature without standing up a heavyweight FX integration. The single Amdoren endpoint covers the conversion math and returns enough detail (rate, converted amount) for the UI. The free tier suits low-volume hobby and indie apps.

Call GET /currency.php with from='GBP', to='THB', amount=20 and return the rate and converted amount for a travel-budget screen

Expense Reporting Currency Normalisation

Finance teams importing foreign-currency receipts can normalise each line into a reporting currency by calling /currency.php once per receipt. Because the endpoint is a single GET, it slots cleanly into a row-by-row spreadsheet enrichment job with negligible operational complexity. Use a paid FX provider when historical rates are required.

For each row in an expense file, call GET /currency.php with from=row.currency, to='USD', amount=row.amount and append the converted USD value

AI Agent Currency Math

Agents that handle bookings, quotes, or shopping baskets can pull current FX values through Jentic without storing raw api_key values. The agent searches Jentic for a conversion intent, loads the operation schema, and executes against a vault-held key. Useful for travel planners and shopping copilots that span currencies inside a single conversation.

Search Jentic for 'convert currency', execute the operation backed by GET /currency.php with from='EUR', to='USD', amount=250, and return the result rounded to two decimals

Why though Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

The Amdoren api_key is stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents receive scoped execution capability — the key never enters the agent's context, prompts, or logs, and is never exposed in the query string the agent sees.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent (e.g. 'convert currency' or 'get exchange rate') and Jentic returns the matching Amdoren operation with its input schema, so the agent calls the right endpoint without parsing Amdoren's docs page.

Time to first call

Direct Amdoren integration: 30 minutes for key provisioning and a single client. Through Jentic: under 5 minutes — search, load schema, execute. The Jentic-maintained spec also means the agent gets a typed input schema where Amdoren itself only ships free-form docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Amdoren Currency API API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for Amdoren Currency API?

Amdoren does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call Amdoren Currency API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.

What authentication does the Amdoren Currency API use?

Amdoren uses an API key passed as the api_key query parameter on the /currency.php request. There is no header-based scheme or OAuth flow. Through Jentic, the api_key is stored encrypted in the vault and injected at execution time so the agent never sees the raw key.

Can I convert any pair of currencies with the Amdoren Currency API?

Yes for the 150+ fiat currencies Amdoren supports. The single GET /currency.php endpoint accepts ISO 4217 codes for both the source (from) and destination (to) currency plus a numeric amount, and returns the converted value at the current rate. Cryptocurrencies are not in scope.

What are the rate limits for the Amdoren Currency API?

Amdoren's free tier allows a few hundred calls per day per api_key, with paid tiers raising the cap. The spec does not enumerate the exact ceiling. Throttle bulk jobs to one request per second and back off on HTTP 429 to stay safe across tiers.

How do I convert currency through Jentic?

Search Jentic for 'convert currency' or 'get exchange rate'. Jentic returns the operation backed by GET /currency.php, you load the schema (from, to, amount), and execute. Jentic injects the api_key from the vault. Sign up at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.

Does the Amdoren Currency API include historical rates?

No. The single endpoint returns only the current rate for the requested pair. For historical FX data pair this with a provider that exposes time-series endpoints (Open Exchange Rates, exchangerate-api, currencybeacon).
