}3Verify and query data
Public verification 1. Configure credentials in the private Provider environment. 2. Verify connector status in the internal Studio/Provider console. 3. Use Barfinex public pages to inspect market data. Operator Provider commands and tokens remain in internal runbooks only.
Available via Barfinex API
/api/candles/futu/...
/api/trades/futu/...
/api/orderbook/futu/...
/api/account/futu/...
/api/symbols/futu/...
/api/assets/futu/...
Studio graphical setup — in development, coming in the next release.
Important
OpenD must be running locally (or on a reachable host) before Barfinex can connect — it is not a cloud API.
Futu requires OpenD to be authenticated with a valid Futu account and may prompt for 2FA on startup.
