How to Use This Documentation​

This documentation is organized into several sections:

API Structure​

The Cryptofuse API follows RESTful design principles and uses JSON for request and response payloads.

Base URLs​

Production:

https://api.cryptofuse.io

Staging/Sandbox:

https://sandbox.cryptofuse.io

Authentication​

All API calls require authentication using OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens. Access tokens are obtained through the client credentials flow:

POST /o/token/
Authorization: Basic base64(client_id:client_secret)
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

grant_type=client_credentials

Request Format​

All requests must include:

  • Content-Type: application/json header for POST/PUT/PATCH requests
  • Authorization: Bearer {access_token} header
  • JSON body for data payloads

Response Format​

Successful responses return JSON data:

{
  "transaction_id": "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000",
  "status": "waiting",
  "blockchain_address": "0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc9e7595f8b8E0",
  "pay_amount": "100.000000",
  "pay_currency": "USDTERC20"
}

Error Responses​

Errors follow a consistent structure:

{
  "error": {
    "code": "invalid_request",
    "message": "The amount field is required",
    "details": {
      "field": "amount",
      "reason": "missing"
    }
  }
}

Rate Limits​

API rate limits vary by endpoint:

  • General endpoints: 1000 requests/hour

Rate limit headers are included in all responses:

  • X-RateLimit-Limit: Maximum requests allowed
  • X-RateLimit-Remaining: Requests remaining
  • X-RateLimit-Reset: Unix timestamp when limit resets
