ExchangeRate-API API questions

- ExchangeRate-API does not offer a public data API for this, but Anakin Wire provides 3 maintained endpoints for exchangerate-api.com. You call Anakin's REST API with an action ID and parameters and get structured JSON back; Anakin handles the browser, proxies, anti-bot, and parsing.
- How do I scrape ExchangeRate-API data?
- POST to https://api.anakin.io/v1/wire/task with your API key, the action ID, and its parameters, then poll GET /v1/wire/jobs/{id} until the job settles. There is nothing to install and no scraper to maintain — when exchangerate-api.com changes its markup, Anakin updates the action.
