  title: Currencylayer Change Symbols API
  description: 'Currencylayer is a real-time and historical foreign exchange rate JSON API

    delivering bank-grade exchange rate data for 168 world currencies and precious

    metals, sourced from 15+ commercial-grade providers. The API is delivered via

    the APILayer marketplace and the legacy `apilayer.net` endpoint.


    Authentication uses the `access_key` query parameter on the legacy endpoint and

    the `apikey` HTTP header on the APILayer marketplace endpoint. The Free plan is

    limited to 100 requests per month and is HTTP-only with USD base; HTTPS,

    arbitrary base currency switching, and the `/convert` endpoint unlock on the

    Basic plan and above. The `/timeframe` endpoint requires the Enterprise plan

    and `/change` requires Enterprise Plus.
