Introduction

General Messages

Kraken Websockets API 0.3.0

Overview

WebSockets API offers real-time market data updates. WebSockets is a bidirectional protocol offering fastest real-time data, helping you build real-time applications. The public message types presented below do not require authentication.

General Considerations

Connection details

  • Connection details for production environment:

    URL Scheme Description
    ws.kraken.com wss

    Once the socket is open you can subscribe to a public channel by sending a subscribe request message.
  • Connection details for authenticated production access:

    URL Scheme Description
    ws-auth.kraken.com wss

    Once the socket is open you can subscribe to both public and private channels by sending a subscribe request message.
  • Connection details for beta environment:

    URL Scheme Description
    beta-ws.kraken.com wss

    Once the socket is open you can subscribe to a public channel by sending a subscribe request message.
    Websockets Beta Documentation

    Authentication

    The API client must request an authentication "token" via the following REST API endpoint "GetWebSocketsToken" to connect to WebSockets Private endpoints. The token should be used within 15 minutes of creation. The token does not expire once a connection to a WebSockets API private message (openOrders or ownTrades) is maintained.

    Endpoint URL: https://api.kraken.com/0/private/GetWebSocketsToken

    The resulting token must be provided in the "token" field of any new private WebSocket feed subscription: 

    {
  "event": "subscribe",
  "subscription":
  {
    "name": "ownTrades",
    "token": "WW91ciBhdXRoZW50aWNhdGlvbiB0b2tlbiBnb2VzIGhlcmUu"
  }
}

    Supported Pairs
