Question 1

How do I connect CoinGecko Pro API to a Slack Webhook in B3OS?

Accepted Answer

Create an API token in CoinGecko, then configure a Slack Webhook URL as a destination in B3OS's workflow builder. Use the 'HTTP Request' module to fetch data from CoinGecko and route it to the Slack webhook for instant notifications.

Question 2

Can I filter CoinGecko data before sending it to Slack?

Accepted Answer

Yes. B3OS allows you to add JSON parsing and conditional logic steps. Extract specific fields (e.g., price, change percentage) and apply filters to trigger messages only when market conditions meet your criteria.

Question 3

What rate limits should I consider when polling CoinGecko?

Accepted Answer

CoinGecko Pro offers higher rate limits, but best practice is to poll every 30‑60 seconds for critical metrics. Implement exponential back‑off or batch requests to stay within API limits and avoid throttling.

Question 4

How can I personalize the Slack messages generated by the integration?

Accepted Answer

Use Slack message templates with placeholders for dynamic data (e.g., {{price}}, {{symbol}}). In B3OS, map these placeholders to the JSON response from CoinGecko to create customized alerts for each channel.
