View OpenAPI Document

Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI document for CoinDCX API, keeping it validated and agent-ready.

Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for CoinDCX API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. CoinDCX is an Indian cryptocurrency exchange whose REST API exposes public market data plus authenticated trading, margin, funding, and wallet operations. The endpoint set covers tickers, order books, candles, balance lookups, spot order placement and cancellation, margin orders, funding lend/settle, and inter-wallet transfers.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use CoinDCX API API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Algorithmic Spot Trading on CoinDCX

Run automated trading strategies on CoinDCX by combining live market data with the order placement and cancellation endpoints. Strategies can submit single or batched orders, monitor active orders, and unwind positions on signal. Suitable for Indian retail and prop traders building bots against INR-quoted pairs.

Submit a limit buy order via POST /exchange/v1/orders/create for BTCINR at a specified price and size and return the order id

Portfolio Monitoring and Reporting

Build a dashboard that tracks balances, open orders, and trade history across spot and margin accounts on CoinDCX. The user info, balances, and order endpoints provide all the data needed for reconciliation and tax reporting in INR. Useful for traders and accountants managing crypto holdings under Indian regulations.

Call POST /exchange/v1/users/balances and POST /exchange/v1/orders/active_orders to assemble a current portfolio snapshot

Margin Trading Automation

Automate margin order placement, monitoring, and exit on CoinDCX. The margin endpoints support creating new margin orders, cancelling them, and exiting an open position, while the funding endpoints let strategies lend or settle borrowed funds. Designed for traders running leveraged strategies on supported pairs.

Open a margin long via POST /exchange/v1/margin/orders/create on a chosen pair, then monitor and call POST /exchange/v1/margin/orders/exit when the strategy signals close

AI Trading Agent via Jentic

Build an AI agent that retrieves CoinDCX market data and places trades through Jentic. The agent expresses an intent in natural language; Jentic resolves the right CoinDCX endpoint, validates parameters against the schema, and executes the call with stored credentials so signing and key handling stay outside the agent context.

Through Jentic, place a small spot buy order on BTCINR and return the order id and acceptance status

Why though Jentic?

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

Credential isolation

CoinDCX API keys and signing secrets are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. HMAC signing is performed server-side; the agent receives a scoped execution token and never sees the secret.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent (e.g. place a spot buy order) and Jentic returns the matching CoinDCX operation with its parameter schema, so the agent calls the correct endpoint without browsing docs.

Time to first call

Direct integration: 2-4 days for HMAC signing, parameter encoding, and error handling on trade endpoints. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs

Specific to using CoinDCX API API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for CoinDCX API?

CoinDCX does not publish an OpenAPI specification on its developer portal. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call CoinDCX 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 CoinDCX API use?

Authenticated endpoints require an API key in the X-AUTH-APIKEY header plus a HMAC SHA-256 signature in the X-AUTH-SIGNATURE header computed over the request body. Through Jentic, both the key and the signing secret are stored in the encrypted vault and signing happens server-side.

Can I place margin orders with the CoinDCX API?

Yes. POST /exchange/v1/margin/orders/create opens a margin position on supported pairs, POST /exchange/v1/margin/orders/cancel cancels a pending margin order, and POST /exchange/v1/margin/orders/exit closes an open position.

What are the rate limits for the CoinDCX API?

CoinDCX enforces per-endpoint and per-account rate limits that vary between public and authenticated calls. The OpenAPI spec does not declare exact thresholds; check your account tier in the CoinDCX dashboard for current limits.

How do I cancel all of my open orders through Jentic?

Install the SDK with pip install jentic, search Jentic for cancel all open orders coindcx, load the schema for POST /exchange/v1/orders/cancel_all, and execute the call. Jentic handles signing with your stored credentials.

Does CoinDCX support batched order placement?

Yes. POST /exchange/v1/orders/create_multiple accepts a list of order specifications and submits them in a single request, which is useful for grid strategies and basket execution.
