What is the difference between a manual and an automatic widget?
01Answer
Here you go
There are two types of automatic widgets:
- Widgets with auto-sync via API access
- Widgets that process data from CSV-files
For widgets that are connected to an Exchange via API, you only need to enter your API key and the corresponding secret once. After that, trades and balances are automatically synchronized. Transactions are usually updated every 60 minutes, balance sheets every 30 minutes. You can also trigger the update process manually.
To fill CSV widgets with data, you must upload CSV files from an exchange. The transactions and balances are only updated when you upload a new CSV file.
With manual widgets, you can enter and edit all the data yourself.
We are working on offering API import for as many exchanges and wallets as possible to provide the best experience to Blockpit users. However, some exchanges do not yet offer an API.
