The Fig Markets API provides two interfaces for integration for integrating with your applications:
- REST over HTTPs for performing actions against the Fig platform
- JSON-RPC WebSockets for real-time notifications/updates
To access the API, you will need to be onboarded to Fig Markets and have a login to our trading platform. If you do not yet have an account please reach out to the teams directly:
- Email: info@figmarkets.com
- Telegram: @figmarkets
Once you have access to our platform you can login and generate one or more API keys, which comprise of a client_id and client_secret. You can then use your API keys to authenticate with the API.
The REST API uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication so your application will follow an OAuth 2.0 flow, using your generated API keys, to obtain an access token which will then be used as a bearer token in the Authorization header of your requests.
The Websockets authentication process requires you to send your client_id and client_secret as part of an JSON-RPC message to an auth method. Once authorised your app will need to send a heartbeat message to the server every 30 seconds to keep the connection alive.
You can find more information on how to authenticate with the API in the Authentication Guide.
There is both a production and test environment for the Fig API. The endpoints for these environments are:
- REST API - https://api.test.figmarkets.com/v1
- WebSockets - wss://ws.figmarkets.com
- REST API - https://api.test.figmarkets.com/v1
- WebSockets - wss://ws.test.figmarkets.com
The Fig Markets API has optional IP Whitelisting against API keys and also uses HMAC-SHA256 signature verification against requests. For further information about these security features please see:
