Overview
This node integrates with the Binance API, specifically targeting the "Spot" resource and its "Exchange" operation. It allows users to interact with Binance's spot market data by selecting or specifying a trading symbol (e.g., BTCUSDT). This is useful for retrieving real-time or historical exchange information about specific cryptocurrency pairs on Binance.
Practical examples include:
- Fetching current price or order book data for a selected trading pair.
- Automating trading strategies based on live spot market data.
- Monitoring specific symbols for price alerts or portfolio tracking.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Symbol Name or ID | Choose a trading symbol from a dynamically loaded list of available Binance spot market pairs, or specify a symbol ID using an expression. This determines which market data the node will query. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data containing the response from the Binance API related to the specified symbol in the spot market. The structure typically includes market details such as prices, volumes, order book entries, or trade history depending on the exact API endpoint called internally.
If binary data were involved (e.g., charts or files), it would be summarized here, but this node focuses on JSON responses representing exchange data.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating requests to the Binance API.
- The node depends on internal methods and properties defined in bundled modules (
./methods,./actions/binance.properties, and./actions/binance.execute). - Proper configuration of the API key credential within n8n is necessary for successful execution.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing API credentials can cause authentication failures.
- Specifying an unsupported or incorrect symbol may result in errors or empty responses.
- Network connectivity problems can prevent access to the Binance API.
Error messages:
- Authentication errors typically indicate invalid API keys; verify and update credentials.
- "Symbol not found" or similar errors suggest the chosen symbol does not exist or is misspelled; use the provided symbol list or expressions carefully.
- Timeout or connection errors require checking internet access and Binance API status.
