Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to create an order API using Binance with RStudio. We’ll be using the binance
package in R for making API calls.
Step 1: Install required packages
You need to install the following packages:
install.packages("cURL")
install.packages("readr")
install.packages("jsonlite")
Step 2: Set up your Binance API credentials
Make sure you have a Binance account and create an API key and secret key. You can do this on the [Binance API website](
For example:
- Create a new API key:
+ Go to your Binance account
+ Click on “Account” in the top right corner
+ Scroll down to the “API Token” section
+ Select “Edit”
+ Fill out the required fields and click “Save Changes”
- Create a new secret key:
+ Go to your Binance account
+ Click on “Settings” in the top left corner
+ Scroll down to the “Secrets” section
+ Click “Generate Secret Key”
+ Copy the generated secret key
Step 3: Write R code to make API calls
Create a new R file and paste the following code:

Set your Binance API credentials
apiKey <- "Your API key"
secretKey <- "Your Secret key"
Load required libraries
library(binance)
library(readr)
library(jsonlite)
Define function to create order
create_order <- function(api_key, secret_key) {
Create a new order object
order <- create_order({
api_key = api_key,
secretKey = secretKey,
symbol = "BTCUSDT",
side = "buy",
type = "limit",
quantity = 10,
price = 10000
})
Return the created order
return(order)
}
Example usage:
order <- create_order(api_key, secretKey)
Print the order details
print(order)
Step 4: Run R code with Binance API library
In your RStudio IDE, click on “File” > “New File” or press Ctrl+N
to create a new file. Then, navigate to the directory where you saved your R file and paste the above code.
Click on “Run” (or press F5
) to run the code. This will make API calls to Binance to create an order using your credentials.
Error message:
If you encounter any errors, make sure that:
- Your API key and secret key are correct
- You have installed the required packages (
cURL
,readr
, andjsonlite
)
- The RStudio IDE is connected to your Binance account
You can use the following error message as a reference:
Error: Error in create_order({
api_key = api_key,
secretKey = secretKey,
symbol = "BTCUSDT",
side = "buy",
type = "limit",
quantity = 10,
price = 10000
}) : API call to Binance failed
