A RESTful API is an application program interface (API) that uses HTTP requests to GET, PUT, POST and DELETE data. A RESTful API is based on representational state transfer (REST) technology, an architectural style, and approach to communications often used in web services development.

arrow Overview

The Apirone bitcoin REST API uses HTTP methods and a RESTful endpoint structure.
You have to format requests in JSON and the APIs return JSON-formatted responses.

All requests over secure HTTPS protocol only.

To construct a REST call, combine:
  • The HTTP method
  • The full URI to the resource
  • HTTP headers, if required
  • The JSON-formatted payload, if required

The REST API endpoint URL: https://apirone.com/api/
