Caching and freshness#
- Fresh for about 30 minutes. Repeat calls in that window are served from cache and are free.
- Between 30 minutes and 6 hours the cached copy is still served instantly and marked
stale: truewhile Onekey refreshes it in the background. - If the source is down when a refresh is needed, the last copy can be served for up to 1 day more (marked stale).
- A "not found" is remembered for 5 minutes and is free.
- The cache is shared across all customers, which is what keeps repeat calls cheap.
What can go wrong#
| Status | Code | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| 401 | unauthorized | Check the x-api-key header. |
| 402 | insufficient_credits | Add credits; your balance must cover the price. |

| 422 | invalid_params | Fix the parameters using the table above. Free. |
