❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Does this require a CoinMarketCap API key? No. This actor uses CoinMarketCap's public data feed and requires no API key or account.

How current is the data? CoinMarketCap updates prices approximately every 60 seconds. The actor fetches live data at run time.

How many coins can I retrieve? Paid users can retrieve up to 1,000,000 records. CoinMarketCap tracks approximately 8,400 active coins. Free users are limited to 10 records.

Can I filter by category? Yes. Use the cryptoType input to filter by: all, coins, tokens, defi, nft, stablecoin, or metaverse.

What currencies are supported? The convertCurrency field accepts USD, BTC, ETH, and other currencies supported by CoinMarketCap's API.

Why is maxSupply null for some coins? Coins like Ethereum have no hard cap, so maxSupply is null. Bitcoin's max supply is 21,000,000.

Can I sort by percent change? Yes. Set sortBy to percent_change_1h, percent_change_24h, or percent_change_7d.

How often should I run this for real-time tracking? For price monitoring, schedule runs every 5-15 minutes. For daily market reports, once per day is sufficient.

What does the dominance field represent? Dominance is the coin's percentage share of the total cryptocurrency market capitalization. Bitcoin dominance of 59.9% means BTC represents 59.9% of all crypto market cap.

Can I use this for automated trading signals? Yes. Many users combine this actor with Make or Zapier to trigger alerts when a coin's price or percent change crosses a threshold.

What is the category field? It's derived from the coin's primary tag on CoinMarketCap (e.g., layer-1, stablecoin, defi, nft). Some coins may show other tags if no category tag is present.

Are historical prices available? This actor returns current live prices. For historical data, consider scheduling repeated runs to build your own time series.
