Getting First Price from Binance to Google Sheets: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you a cryptocurrency enthusiast or a trader looking for ways to automate data analysis using Google Sheets and Binance API? In this article, we’ll walk you through the process of getting the first price from Binance’s P2P page in Google Sheets.

Prerequisites:

• You have a Binance account with P2P trading enabled.

• You have a Google Sheet set up to receive data from Binance.

• The IMPORTXML function is not available on Google Sheets, so we’ll use a workaround using the JSON function and parsing the response manually.

Step 1: Parse the Response

Binance’s P2P page returns an XML response that contains the price information. To parse this data in Google Sheets, we need to:

• Use the JSON.stringify() method to convert the XML string into a JSON object.

• Then, use the JSON.parse() function to parse the JSON object.

Here’s the code snippet:

import json











Define the Binance API endpoint URL

api_url = " + "UZS"



Parse the XML response into a JSON object

json_data = json.loads(api_url)

Step 2: Extract the First Price

Once we have the JSON object, we need to extract the first price. Since JSON.parse() returns an empty string if the input is not valid JSON, we’ll use a simple loop to iterate through the data and find the first value that matches our search criteria.

Here’s the code snippet:

Define the search term (first price in this case)

search_term = "price"



Initialize the price variable

first_price = None



Iterate through the JSON object to find the matching price

for key, value in json_data.items():

    if isinstance(value, str) and search_term.lower() in value.lower():

        
Update the first price variable with the matched price

        if first_price is None or float(value) < float(first_price):

            first_price = float(value)



If we found a match, output the price to Google Sheets

if first_price is not None:

    print(f"Price: {first_price}")

Step 3: Output to Google Sheets

To output the first price to Google Sheets, you’ll need to create an array with the price value and then use IMPORTXML or a similar method in Google Sheets to upload that data.

Here’s an example of how you can do this:

import json



Define the Binance API endpoint URL

api_url = " + "UZS"



Parse the XML response into a JSON object

json_data = json.loads(api_url)



Extract the first price from the JSON object

search_term = "price"

first_price = None



Iterate through the JSON object to find the matching price

for key, value in json_data.items():

    if isinstance(value, str) and search_term.lower() in value.lower():

        
Update the first price variable with the matched price

        if first_price is None or float(value) < float(first_price):

            first_price = float(value)



Create a new row array with the price value

price_array = [first_price]



Upload the data to Google Sheets using IMPORTXML

importxml_value = "YOUR_BINARYSEAFD_API_URL_HERE"

importxml_output = f"YOUR_BINARYSEAFD_API_URL_HERE?action=importdata&json={importxml_value}"


print(importxml_output)

Example Use Case:

Let’s say you have a Binance API endpoint URL that returns an XML response like this:

You can modify the code snippet above to extract the first price from the XML response and output it to Google Sheets as follows:

• Replace api_url with your Binance API endpoint URL.

• Update the search_term variable to match the value of the “price” element in the XML response.
