| Name | Location | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
start | query | no | string | null | ISO date (YYYY-MM-DD) or ISO-Z timestamp. Range is half-open `[start, end)` — `start` is inclusive. |
end | query | no | string | null | ISO date (YYYY-MM-DD) or ISO-Z timestamp. Range is half-open `[start, end)` — `end` is **exclusive**. Example: `start=2026-05-12&end=2026-05-15` covers May 12, 13, 14 (NOT 15). |
grain | query | no | string matching `^(day|week|month|year)$`, default `day` | — |
unit | query | no | string matching `^(ltc|usd)$`, default `ltc` | — |
methodology | query | no | string | null | — |
include_current | query | no | boolean, default `False` | Attach the additive `current` member: the in-progress current window and/or state snapshots with explicit as-of provenance (height, hash, time, stability). Defaults to false — the pre-existing response is byte-identical when omitted. Unsupported current calculations return an explicit `status=unavailable` object with a governed `reason_code`; nothing is fabricated. |

}Documented Responses
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
200 | Successful Response |
400 | Bad request. The `error.code` field identifies the specific cause: `bad_request` (general validation failure, including malformed dates, out-of-order ranges, and request-body validation), `range_too_large` (date range exceeds the per-grain cap), `ambiguous_time_range` (legacy `from`/`to` and new `start`/`end` supplied with differing values), or `invalid_include` (unsupported expansion in `?include=`). |
401 | Authentication required, or the supplied Bearer token is invalid or revoked. `error.code` = `auth_required`. |
402 | Payment-tier gate. `error.code` identifies which gate fired: `subscription_required` (no active subscription on the account), `subscription_inactive` (subscription exists but is not active), `include_all_requires_paid_tier` (Free-tier keys cannot request `?include=all`), `include_set_requires_paid_tier` (the requested include set exceeds the per-request cost cap for Free-tier keys), `historical_scan_requires_paid_tier` (legacy test keys cannot scan outside the recent window), or `deep_pagination_requires_paid_tier` (Free-tier keys cannot page beyond the depth cap). |
403 | Authenticated but the key lacks the required scope. `error.code` = `scope_insufficient`. |
422 | Defense-in-depth: the runtime maps standard request-shape validation errors to 400, so partners normally see 400 instead of 422. This status is declared so any edge-case validation path that bypasses the override is still typed. |
429 | Rate limit or credit budget exceeded. `error.code` identifies the window: `rate_limit_exceeded` (per-second or per-minute), `quota_exceeded_daily` (Free-tier per-day budget), or `quota_exceeded` (per-subscription-period). The body carries a `window` field (`second`, `minute`, `day`, or `month`) naming the failing limit. Responses include the standard `Retry-After` header. |
500 | Internal server error. `error.code` = `internal_error`. Reference `meta.request_id` when contacting support. |
503 | Service or downstream data store is temporarily unavailable, or the endpoint is not implemented in this API version. `error.code` identifies the cause: `data_unavailable` (chain tip not yet populated), `audit_unavailable` (request completed but audit could not be acknowledged — safe to retry), `plan_misconfigured` (operational issue on the API side; not a tier problem), or `endpoint_not_available` (the route is reserved and not yet served in this version). |
Integration Notes
- `adjusted_volume_usd` is populated for completed history: methodology `usd_v1_daily_close_observed` — each day converts at that day’s observed Kraken USD daily close (synthetic fills excluded), banker’s-rounded to 2 decimals per day; week/month/year buckets are the sum of the converted days and are null when any day lacks an observed candle (chiefly pre-2018).
- `unit` does not select a different dataset. `unit=usd` returns `503 data_unavailable` only when the whole requested range lacks USD coverage; atomic-unit values never fail for the optional USD source.
- Methodology versions are surfaced so series can be compared consistently over time.
- `include_current=true` adds the additive `current` member — an in-progress `time_window` and/or `state_snapshot` objects with explicit provenance (`as_of_height`, `as_of_hash`, `as_of_time`, `stability`). `is_complete` follows the median-time-past predicate; a current partial is never a completed close. See the Live current data guide at /xtract/docs/#current-data.
- The current window is served at the CLASSIFIER watermark (its own block identity plus `classifier_lag_blocks`) and carries the payment-exact subset. Gross-volume-derived outputs (`gross_volume`, `estimated_change_value_point`, eligible/excluded VALUES, coverage ppm) are completed-history-only: they cannot be bounded to the classifier watermark and are never fabricated in `current`.
- `include_current` and `current_metrics` add no charge in this schedule — live current objects are included in the route price (a governed product decision; any later surcharge would be a separately versioned contract change).
