data?object[]
Show item properties
trade_id?string
Identifier for the trade. Kalshi supplies its own trade id; Polymarket fills have no venue id, so theirs is a composite key derived from the settling transaction and the fill's own fields.
timestamp?string (date-time)
When the trade executed on the venue, in UTC.
price?number
Yes-side traded price in cents (0-100), the canonical API scale.
count?integer
Quantity traded: contracts on Kalshi, shares on Polymarket (rounded to a whole number).
side?string
Which side the taker (the aggressing order) was on, yes or no. Polymarket buy/sell fills are normalized onto the same two values.
volume?numbernull
Trade size. Platform-native: Kalshi is USD notional, Polymarket is shares.
meta?object
Show properties
total?integernull
Total number of records matching the request across every page, not just the current one. null on an uncounted list; page using has_next. A relevance-ranked search is uncounted, and a searched events list stays uncounted even with sort. A searched markets list with sort returns a total over the ranked matches (at most 10,000).
page?integer
The 1-based page number this response covers.
per_page?integer
Maximum number of items on a page. The last page may hold fewer.
total_pages?integernull
Total number of pages available at the current per_page. null whenever total is null; page using has_next.
has_next?boolean
True when a page exists after this one.
has_prev?boolean
True when this is not the first page.
total_capped?boolean
True when total and total_pages reflect the server's counting ceiling rather than the exact matched count: the real set is at least total large. Render such totals as a lower bound (for example "10,000+"). Omitted when the count is exact. A sorted markets search that fills the 10,000-candidate ceiling sets this flag.
403 · The organization has no paid plan, so the realtime read scopes are refused. Distinct from a 429, which means a plan's budget ran out: nothing here resets on a timer, and the request succeeds only once the organization holds a plan.
error *string
Human-readable reason the request was refused.
status *integer
HTTP status code, repeated in the body.
upgrade_url?string (uri)
Page listing the plans and their request allowances, for buying access. Absent when no plan is available for purchase.
404 · Market not found
error?string
Stable, machine-readable code identifying the failure; branch on this rather than on message. One of bad_request, unauthorized, forbidden, not_found, conflict, service_unavailable, upstream_error, service_error, or internal_error.
message?string
Human-readable explanation, safe to show to a user. For client errors it names the specific problem; for server-side failures it is a generic notice and the underlying detail is deliberately withheld.
429 · The organization's minute or UTC-day request budget is exhausted, or the organization has reached its cap on requests running at the same time (`limit: "concurrency"`). Wait `Retry-After` seconds before retrying; for a concurrency 429, reduce parallelism.
error *"rate_limited"
Always rate_limited. Branch on this to detect a throttled request.
limit *"rpm" | "daily" | "concurrency"
Which limit was hit: rpm for the per-minute cap, daily for the daily one, or concurrency for the cap on requests running at the same time.
message *string
Human-readable explanation naming the limit that was exceeded.
upgrade_url?string (uri)
Page listing the plans and their request allowances, for buying a larger budget. Absent when no plan is available for purchase.
