Currency Rates
Models guess exchange rates from old training data; this returns reference rates for any date.
Finance & Markets
Converts amounts between currencies and retrieves published reference exchange rates. Covers major and minor fiat currencies with rates sourced once per working day. Supports single conversions, historical lookups, and multi-day series for charting or trend analysis.
Use when
You need an exchange rate or a currency conversion grounded in published reference rates instead of a guessed number.
Not for
Live trading or dealer spreads, crypto prices, intraday or real-time tick rates, or rates for currencies outside the supported list.
What you can do
Each is a sub-skill of Currency Rates; the router picks the right one for your request.
What you get back
information
Returns the converted amounts or rates with the actual publication date they came from, which may be an earlier working day than the date you asked for. Not a downloadable file.
When it checks with you first
A currency name or code is ambiguous, or it is unclear whether you want one date, a single conversion, or a range over time.
