Frequently asked questions

Ceven acts as a passthrough for your own CoinMarketCap API key. Every time an agent calls a tool like Get Latest Cryptocurrency Quotes, it consumes credits from your specific plan. We do not provide a pooled credit system because different users have different tier needs. You can use the Check API usage action within any workflow to monitor your remaining credits in real time. If you run out of credits, the agent will receive a 429 error and the workflow will pause. We recommend setting up a separate alert workflow that triggers when your credit balance drops below a certain threshold so you can upgrade your plan without interrupting your data pipelines.
The historical capabilities depend on the specific endpoint used and your API plan. While the Exchange Listings Historical tool allows you to see which exchanges were active on a specific date, granular historical price candles are often restricted to higher tier plans. For most users, Ceven provides the latest snapshots and recent movements. If you need deep historical time series data, the agent can attempt to pull it if your API key has the required permissions, otherwise it will return a permission denied error. You can verify your plan capabilities in the CoinMarketCap developer portal to see if you have access to the professional historical endpoints.
The data is as real time as the CoinMarketCap API provides for your specific plan. For most standard users, there is a slight delay between the actual trade on an exchange and the aggregated price appearing in the API. Ceven does not cache this data for long periods, meaning every time the agent runs a Get Latest Cryptocurrency Quotes call, it is fetching the freshest data available from the source. For high frequency trading, be aware that the API is designed for market analytics rather than millisecond execution, and you should account for the aggregation lag inherent in the CoinMarketCap data pipeline.
Ceven recommends using the unique numeric IDs provided by the Cryptocurrency Map rather than symbols. Symbols can occasionally overlap or change during a rebrand, which can break your workflows. When you use the Get crypto map action, the agent retrieves the immutable ID for each asset. By storing these IDs in your database or workflow configuration, the agent ensures it always pulls the correct quote regardless of symbol changes. If you only have a symbol, the agent will perform a lookup first to find the ID and then execute the quote request to ensure maximum accuracy.
No. Ceven can only access data for assets that are already indexed and tracked by CoinMarketCap. If a new token has launched but has not yet been listed on the platform, the search and map tools will return no results. To handle this, you can build a workflow that periodically checks the latest listings to detect when a watched token finally appears. Once the asset is listed and assigned an ID, the agent can begin pulling its market cap, volume, and price data into your tracking sheets or dashboards automatically.
Yes. The Price Conversion tool allows the agent to convert values between any supported cryptocurrency and major fiat currencies like USD, EUR, and GBP. This is particularly useful for portfolios that hold multiple assets but need a consolidated value in a single currency for reporting. You can set up a workflow that loops through a list of your holdings, pulls the current rate for each from CoinMarketCap, and sums them into a final fiat total. The agent handles the math and the API calls in the background so you only see the final converted result.
If the API returns a server error or is unreachable, Ceven will trigger a retry logic based on the error code. For temporary timeouts, the agent will try the request again after a short delay. If the outage is prolonged, the workflow will enter a failed state and notify you via your chosen alert channel. Because we do not store a local copy of the entire market, we cannot provide fallback data during a total API outage. However, you can design your workflow to use a secondary data source if the CoinMarketCap call fails, ensuring your reports always have some level of data.
Absolutely. By using the Global Metrics Quotes Latest tool, the agent can pull the current percentage of market dominance for Bitcoin and other major assets. You can build a logic gate in Ceven that says if BTC dominance drops below a certain percentage, trigger a research task for the team. The agent can then combine this metric with a list of the top gaining altcoins from the latest listings tool to create a comprehensive market shift report. This allows you to move from monitoring a number to executing a business process based on that number without any manual intervention.
