Processing

Realtime

The Hyperliquid info endpoint with type: "candleSnapshot" is used to fetch historical OHLCV candles for a coin and interval over a time window for charting and backtesting.

Estimate your monthly cost for this API using the Pricing Calculator.

• Wire-equal to POST api.hyperliquid.xyz/info with {"type": "candleSnapshot", "req": {...}}. Note the nested req object.
• Each response contains at most 5,000 candles (per-response cap, not a retention limit); page by advancing startTime for longer ranges.
• GoldRush serves candles from a dedicated HyperCore historical store, so candles older than the upstream window can extend back to GoldRush’s full HyperCore coverage.
• For live, push-based candles, including HIP-3 and HIP-4 markets, use the Streaming API OHLCV streams instead of polling.

Returns an array of OHLCV candles for a single coin and interval, bounded by a [startTime, endTime] window. Each candle carries the open/close timestamps, the coin, the interval, open/high/low/close prices, base volume, and trade count. Use it for chart backfills, indicator computation, and backtests.

This is a global, non-user-keyed type. NOT LIMITED TO THE MOST RECENT 5,000 CANDLES. GoldRush serves it from a dedicated HyperCore historical store so candles older than the upstream window remain available; page through time by advancing startTime.

Endpoint

POST https://hypercore.goldrushdata.com/info
Authorization: Bearer <GOLDRUSH_API_KEY>
Content-Type: application/json

Request

The request parameters are nested inside a req object.

type · string · default: "candleSnapshot" · required

Always "candleSnapshot".

req · object · required

The candle query parameters.

Show properties

coin · string · required

The asset symbol, e.g. "BTC". HIP-3 markets use the deployer-prefixed form.

interval · string · required

Candle interval. One of "1m", "3m", "5m", "15m", "30m", "1h", "2h", "4h", "8h", "12h", "1d", "3d", "1w", "1M".

startTime · int · required

Unix timestamp in milliseconds. Inclusive lower bound for the window.

endTime · int

Unix timestamp in milliseconds. Inclusive upper bound. Defaults to current server time when omitted.
