Frequently asked questions

CurrencyBeacon provides real time exchange rates that are updated frequently throughout the trading day. When Ceven calls the latest exchange rates endpoint, it retrieves the most current mid market rate available in the CurrencyBeacon system. This ensures that your automated pricing or conversion workflows are based on the most recent market movements. Depending on your specific CurrencyBeacon subscription tier, the refresh frequency may vary, but the agent always pulls the freshest data available to your API key. This makes it ideal for high volatility environments where waiting for a daily update would result in significant margin loss or pricing errors.
Yes, Ceven can use CurrencyBeacon to process both fiat and cryptocurrency rates. Whether you need to convert Bitcoin to USD or Ethereum to EUR, the agent accesses the same REST API endpoints to pull the current market value. You can build workflows that monitor crypto volatility and trigger alerts or execute trades in other connected tools when a certain price point is hit. The agent treats crypto assets as first class citizens, allowing you to mix and match fiat and digital currencies in a single conversion request or historical report without needing a separate integration for crypto data.
CurrencyBeacon provides historical data going back to 1996. Ceven can access any specific date within this range using the historical exchange rates tool. This is particularly useful for tax audits or financial reviews where you must prove the exchange rate used for a transaction that occurred years ago. The agent can automate the retrieval of these rates for thousands of transactions by iterating through your ledger and making individual calls for each unique date, then summarizing the total value in your preferred reporting currency for a clean final report.
Yes, CurrencyBeacon imposes rate limits based on your API plan level. If a Ceven workflow attempts to make thousands of requests in a very short window, you may encounter a 429 too many requests error. To mitigate this, Ceven implements intelligent caching for common currency pairs and batches requests where possible. However, for extremely large datasets like decade long daily timeseries for multiple currencies, the agent will automatically throttle its own request speed to stay within your plan limits. You can check your current usage in the CurrencyBeacon dashboard to ensure your plan matches your workflow volume.
Ceven does not store a permanent database of all global exchange rates because they change too rapidly. Instead, it uses a short lived cache to avoid redundant API calls within the same workflow execution. For example, if you are converting one hundred invoices all dated today, Ceven will pull the rate once and apply it to all items. For historical data, the rates are pulled on demand to ensure absolute accuracy against the CurrencyBeacon source of truth. This approach minimizes API consumption while maintaining the precision required for financial accounting and legal compliance.
While CurrencyBeacon provides highly accurate mid market rates, you should verify the specific requirements of your local tax authority. Many governments require the use of a specific official source for tax filings. Ceven can be configured to pull the exact dates and rates needed for these filings, but the responsibility for selecting the correct rate source lies with the user. The agent simply automates the retrieval and application of the data. We recommend consulting with a certified accountant to ensure that mid market rates from a REST API satisfy your specific jurisdictional audit requirements.
The historical rates tool is designed for a single point in time, such as finding the rate for one specific Tuesday in 2015. The timeseries tool is designed for a range of time, such as every day in March 2023. Ceven uses the timeseries endpoint when you ask for trends, volatility reports, or month end averages. This is significantly more efficient than making thirty individual calls for thirty different days. The agent parses the resulting array of dates and rates to create a clean table or chart in your destination tool, making it easier to visualize currency trends.
If a workflow passes an invalid or unsupported ISO currency code to CurrencyBeacon, the API will return an error. Ceven is programmed to handle these errors gracefully. Instead of crashing the workflow, the agent will flag the specific transaction as having an invalid currency and move to the next item. It will then provide you with a summary report of all failed conversions and the reason for the failure. You can then use the Get Currencies tool to find the correct code and update your source data before rerunning the automation.
