Notes ​

  • Pro API Key is only available for CoinGecko API paid plan subscribers, the root URL for CoinGecko Pro API must be https://pro-api.coingecko.com/api/v3/.
  • You are recommended to store the API key securely in your own backend and use a proxy to insert the key into the request URL.
  • It's highly recommended to use the Headers method when making API requests for better security. Using query string parameters can risk exposing your API key.
