The facts are the same as in [List currencies](https://docs.alura.io/api-reference/etsy/currencies/list.md). ## Convert to USD `units_per_usd` is how many units of the currency one US dollar buys (USD is `1`). Divide by it: at `0.893`, 25 EUR / 0.893 = 28.00 USD. `rate_as_of` says when Alura stored the rate. > [!NOTE] > > With no usable rate stored, `units_per_usd` and `rate_as_of` are `null` and `notices` has `rate_unknown`. The rate is never 1 or 0 by default. A code Etsy doesn't support answers `404` [`not_found`](https://docs.alura.io/errors/not_found). A code that isn't three letters answers `400`. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json get /v1/etsy/currencies/{code} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Alura API version: 1.0.0 description: Etsy market research for scripts and AI assistants. servers: - url: https://api.alura.io security: - apiKey: [] paths: /v1/etsy/currencies/{code}: get: summary: Get currency description: >- One currency Etsy supports, plus `units_per_usd` (units of the currency one US dollar buys: 25 EUR / 0.893 = 28.00 USD) and `rate_as_of` (when Alura stored that rate).
