Web Browser API Calls


 For clients who are not familiar with Curl nor WGET, a simpler way of executing API calls is through the web browser.

Simply put this list call in a browser, and hit enter: https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/list?limit=1

Enter your API username and password, hit enter to see the listing. You should see something similar to this:


{
  "files": [
    {
      "dataset": "MD",
      "yyyymmdd": "20161003",
      "url": "https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/download?fid=20161003-MD_xnym_zz6_fut_1-eth",
      "fid": "20161003-MD_xnym_zz6_fut_1-eth",
      "orderid": "2793",
      "exchangecode": "xnym",
      "productcode": "zz6",
      "checksum": "87ba2eada6a38c093307d579ad97026e",
      "size": 299,
      "expiration": "2017-07-05"
    }
  ],
  "paging": {
    "previous": "",
    "next": "https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/list?limit=1&lastFid=20161003-MD_xnym_zz6_fut_1-eth&page=1"
  }
}


Clicking on the url for each file will download the file.

Sample API Calls

For Listing (can return multiple days, but you cannot specify a range)

For Normal Download (single day of single product)

For Batch Download (single day / all products)

USING CURL

 LISTING Files:

To list all your files 1000 files at a time


curl --user API_ID:Password 'https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/list'



This will provide you a list of file description and a URL to download each file


EX:

 {

      "dataset": "EOD",

      "yyyymmdd": "20150403",

      "url": "https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/download?fid=20150403-EOD_xcbt_c_fut_0-eth_p",

      "fid": "20150403-EOD_xcbt_c_fut_0-eth_p",

      "s3url": "cmegroup-main-us-east-1-datamine-prod/endofday/30405102/tbcx/fut/eth/c/xcbt-eodp-c-fut-20150403.csv.gz",

      "orderid": "2371",

      "exchangecode": "xcbt",

      "productcode": "c",

      "checksum": "4f8510b7c7f7540c73a01c7a5b19bcab",

      "size": 769,

      "expiration": "2016-12-15"

    }


The '' url '' is what you will use to download a file.


You can add parameters to your list command to target more precisely the files you are looking for.


For example:

https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/list?yyyymmdd=20161114&dataset=EOD

 PAGING:

If you have more than 1000 files, you can page down using the '' next '' tag in the paging object sent at the end of the response.


EX:

"paging": {

    "previous": "",

    "next": "https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/list?limit=1000&lastFid=20150403-EOD_xcbt_c_fut_0-eth_p&page=1"

  }


The curl command to page down is:


curl --user UNO_ID:Password 'https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/list?limit=1000&lastFid=20150403-EO_xcbt_c_fut_0-eth_p&page=1'

 DOWNLOADING FILES

From a list object, you take the '' url '' tag to download a file:


Ex:

 {

      "dataset": "EOD",

      "yyyymmdd": "20150403",

      "url": "https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/download?fid=20150403-EOD_xcbt_c_fut_0-eth_p",

      "fid": "20150403-EOD_xcbt_c_fut_0-eth_p",

      "s3url": "cmegroup-main-us-east-1-datamine-prod/endofday/30405102/tbcx/fut/eth/c/xcbt-eodp-c-fut-20150403.csv.gz",

      "orderid": "2371",

      "exchangecode": "xcbt",

      "productcode": "c",

      "checksum": "4f8510b7c7f7540c73a01c7a5b19bcab",

      "size": 769,

      "expiration": "2016-12-15"

    }


The curl command to download a file is:


curl -O -J --user UNO_ID:Password 'https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/download?fid=20150403-EOD_xcbt_c_fut_0-eth_p'

 USING A WEB BROWSER

You can also use a simple web browser to access your data.


If you enter the following URL in the navigation bar, you will receive a list of your first 1000 files:

https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/list


Once this url is pasted in your navigation bar, you will be asked for a username and password. Enter your UNO_ID and Password to receive your file list.


You can add parameters to you list command to more precisely target the files you are looking for.


For example:

https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/list?yyyymmdd=20161114&dataset=EOD

 DOWNLOADING FROM A WEB BROWSER

If you paste the URL tag for a list command in the navigation bar for the web browser, you will download the specific file.


https://datamine.cmegroup.com/cme/api/v1/download?fid=20150403-EOD_xcbt_c_fut_0-eth_p
