Futures Rest API

危险

Poloniex futures v1/v2 API will be officially offline on November 30, 2024. You can access the V3 API to provide you with a better trading experience.

The REST API provides endpoints for users and trades as well as market data.

A Request URL is made by a Base URL and a specified endpoint of the interface. Base URL: https://futures-api.poloniex.com

Endpoint of the Interface

Each interface has its own endpoint, which is provided under the HTTP REQUEST module.

For GET requests, please append the queried parameters to the endpoint.

E.G. For "Position", the default endpoint of this API is /api/v1/position. If you pass the symbol parameter (BTCUSDTPERP), the endpoint will become /api/v1/position?symbol=BTCUSDTPERP and the final request URL will be https://futures-api.poloniex.com/api/v1/position?symbol=BTCUSDTPERP.

Requests

All requests and responses are application/json content type.

Unless otherwise stated, all timestamp parameters should be in Unix time milliseconds. e.g. 1544657947759

Parameters

For GET and DELETE requests, all queried parameters need to be included in the request URL. (e.g. /api/v1/position?symbol=BTCUSDTPERP)

For POST and PUT requests, all queried parameters need to be included in the request body in JSON format. (e.g. {"side":"buy"}). Do NOT include any space in JSON strings.

Errors

When errors occur, the HTTP error code or system error code will be returned. The body will also contain a message parameter indicating the cause.

Success

A successful response is indicated by an HTTP status code 200 and system code 200000. The success response is as follows:

{
  "code": "200000"
}

Pager

Poloniex Futures uses Triple form or Pagination or HasMore for all REST requests which return arrays.

Triple form

{
  "from": 1,
  "direct": "NEXT",
  "limit": 50,
  "data": ...
}

The data in the corresponding direction can be accurately queried through the starting id and direct. The starting id can be queried forward or backward. Endpoints like /api/v2/orders, /api/v2/fills

Example GET https://futures-api.poloniex.com/api/v1/orders?from=0&direct=PREV&limit=50

Parameters

Parameter	Default	Description
from	0	The starting id of the query, use the nextId in the response result, and pass 0 for the first time
direct	NEXT	PREV - page forward; means starting from the starting id, querying in ascending order NEXT - page forward; means starting from the starting id, querying in descending order
limit	50	Limit of items per page

Pagination

{
  "currentPage": 1,
  "pageSize": 50,
  "totalNum": 6,
  "totalPage": 1,
  "data": ...
}

Pagination allows for fetching results with the current page and is well suited for real time data. Endpoints like /api/v1/orders, /api/v1/fills, return the latest items by default. To retrieve more results, users should specify the currentPage number in the subsequent requests to turn the page based on the data previously returned.

Example

GET https://futures-api.poloniex.com/api/v1/orders?currentPage=1&pageSize=50

Parameters

Parameter	Default	Description
currentPage	1	Current request page.
pageSize	50	Number of results per request.

HasMore

The HasMore pager uses a sliding window scheme to obtain paged data by sliding a fixed-sized window on the data stream. The returned results will provide field HasMore to show if there are more data. The HasMore pager is efficient and takes the same amount of time for each sliding which makes the HasMore pager well suited for real-time streaming data queries.

Parameters

Parameter	type	Description
offset	-	Start offset. The unique attribute of the last returned result of the last request. The data of the first page will be returned by default.
forward	boolean	Slide direction. Set to “TRUE” to look up data of the next page
maxCount	int	The maximum amount for each sliding

Example

GET https://futures-api.poloniex.com/api/v1/interest/query?symbol=.XBTINT&offset=1558079160000&forward=true&maxCount=10

Types

Timestamps

Unless otherwise specified, all timestamps from API are returned in Unix time milliseconds(e.g. 1546658861000).
