curl -s "https://www.coinboss.com/api/derivatives/kline?coin=BTC&interval=1h&limit=200"Response fields
The field table is generated from real responses, so it lists exactly what the endpoint returns. Paths use a[] for array items and {*} for objects keyed by a dynamic name such as a coin or an exchange.
| Field | Type | Unit | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| success | boolean | — | true when the request succeeded. On failure the body is `{ success: false, code, error, request_id }`. |
| now | number | ms | Server time when the response was built. |
| coin | string | — | Coin symbol, upper case (for example BTC). |
| interval | string | — | Interval. |
| data | array | — | Payload. |
| data[] | object | — | Payload. |
| data[].t | number | ms | Timestamp. |
| data[].o | number | USD | Open price of the candle, from the coin's USDT-margined perpetual on Binance (OKX when Binance has none); `4h` candles are aggregated from 1h. |
| data[].h | number | USD | Highest price of the candle on the same perpetual contract. |
| data[].l | number | USD | Lowest price of the candle on the same perpetual contract. |
| data[].c | number | USD | Close price of the candle; for the newest candle, the latest price so far. |
| data[].vol | number | — | Volume. |

Errors
Failed calls share one shape on every endpoint. The full list is on the errors page. Errors and rate limits →
| Code | HTTP | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|---|
| INVALID_PARAM | 400 | A required parameter is missing or a value is not accepted. `param` names the parameter when it is known. | Do not retry unchanged; fix the request. |
| UNAUTHORIZED | 401 | The `CB-API-KEY` header was sent but the key is unknown or revoked. Public data needs no key — drop the header or use a valid key. | Do not retry unchanged. |
| FORBIDDEN | 403 | The route is not part of the public API (internal or account-only). | Do not retry. |
| NOT_FOUND | 404 | Unknown route, or the requested coin / exchange / fund does not exist. | Do not retry; check the path and identifiers against the catalog. |
| RATE_LIMITED | 429 | More requests than the per-minute limit. `Retry-After` gives the seconds to wait. | Wait for `Retry-After`, then retry with backoff. |
| INTERNAL | 500 | Unexpected server error. The message is generic by design; quote `request_id` when reporting it. | Retry once after a few seconds; report it with the request id if it persists. |
| UPSTREAM_FAILED | 503 | The data source behind this endpoint did not answer in time. No stale or substitute numbers are returned in its place. | Retry with backoff; check the status page. |
| UNAVAILABLE | 501 / 503 | The dataset is temporarily not ready (cache warming) or the endpoint has no lawful public source yet. | Retry later; the catalog marks endpoints that are unavailable by design. |
| REQUEST_FAILED | 200 | Some older endpoints answer HTTP 200 with `success: false`. Always check `success`, not only the HTTP status. | Depends on the message; treat as a failed request. |
