| REST | https://itick.dev |
| WebSocket | wss://itick.dev |
Send your first request
curl -H "token: YOUR_API_KEY" \
"https://itick.dev/stock/quote?region=HK&code=700"{
"code": 0,
"msg": null,
"data": {
"s": "700",
"ld": 420.6,
"p": 428.2,
"o": 425.6,
"h": 426,
"l": 419.2,
"v": 12436640,
"ch": -7.6,
"chp": -1.77
}
}Authentication
Send the token in the token request header, as with the official iTick API. You can also use the x-api-key or Authorization: Bearer header, or the token query parameter. Browser WebSockets cannot set headers, so use the query parameter there.
Keep your token to your own programs; never put it in a public web page or repository. If it leaks, reset it in the console and the old token stops working immediately.
