Question

Import CSV from website

Hi all.

I have a cryptocurrency portfolio tracker that I’ve created in Google Sheets.

I’ve been relying on APIs (CoinGecko/CoinMarketCap and others) for historic price information of specific cryptocurrencies so I can see my portfolio’s value over time.

However, these APIs are less and less reliable usually due to the low quotas they offer for free (and extortionate pricing for their paid API plans).

A far more reliable method for me is to download a CSV file manually from CoinGecko containing historic price data and then import into Google Sheets and use a VLOOKUP to match the date and price from a master sheet.

The problem is, I am trying to monitor around 50 or so coins and this is very tedious to keep downloading CSVs, and uploading them.

Could anyone think of a way to automatically do this using Zapier (or other methods)?

I currently get the CSV from going to the coin on CoinGecko (let’s take Stellar/XLM for example): https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/stellar/historical_data#panel and clicking the “Export As” link on the right and selecting CSV.

 

Any help would be extremely appreciated.
