Query parameters

assetVersion1

Controls whether response keys and asset identifier fields use Kraken's internal names or display names.

  • Omitted (default): internal names are used. Asset keys use legacy X/Z-prefixed format (XXBT, ZUSD). Pair keys use the internal format (XXBTZUSD). Asset identifier fields (base, quote, fee_volume_currency) also use internal names.
  • assetVersion=1: display names are used. Asset keys become their canonical display names (BTC, USD). Pair keys become the slash-separated display format (BTC/USD). On /public/AssetPairs, the base, quote, and fee_volume_currency fields also switch to display names.

Only assetVersion=1 is currently supported. The altname and wsname fields are not affected by this parameter.
