Step 1: Prerequisites
Complete the prerequisites:
- Have your API credentials ready - we will provide this to you.
- Implement authentication (see below section)
- Implement webhooks so that we can send the NFT details to you.
For the purposes of NFTs, you can use the crypto equivalent coin type for your order, or if this is not applicable, you can use a stablecoin such as USDC and USDT to get the pricing.
Authentication
For all requests, add an Authorization digest to the header. The header structure must be in the following format:
"Authorization: Bearer API Key:Signature:Nonce"
API Key
The API public key credential. This is the one provided by us during on-boarding.
Signature
Message authentication signature. The request message is hashed with the API Secret using SHA256 algorithm.
The structure of the message:
- Request method. (e.g. "GET or "POST")
- Request URI path including the query parameters for GET.
- The nonce value (e.g. using unix timestamp value)
- The payload in JSON format only for POST, with no whitespace.
Each of the items in the message should be separated by a new line for example
'GET' + '\n' + '/api/coins' + '\n' + '1612391416'
'POST' + '\n' + '/api/orders' + '\n' + '1612391416' + '\n' + '{"account_reference":"example_01"}'
Nonce
A unix timestamp in milliseconds generated for this request.
Sample Code
Here is some sample code around how to call the API including the HMAC authentication. Key things to note when building your integration:
- The signature passed to the HMAC algorithm are separated by new lines (see above section)
- The json payload for POST requests should contain no whitespace
- The nonce should be a unix timestamp which is generated for every request
