What you get

In current mode you get one record per Argentine dollar exchange rate type plus one record per major foreign currency (Euro, Brazilian real, Chilean peso, Uruguayan peso), each with buy price, sell price, the spread and the daily percent change. In historical mode you get the full daily evolution series of the official and blue dollar. Use it to track the parallel market, build a converter, chart a trend or feed a dashboard. Records carry:

• type: the rate identifier (oficial, blue, bolsa, contadoconliqui, tarjeta, cripto, mayorista, ahorro, or currency-eur, currency-brl, currency-clp, currency-uyu)
• name: human-readable name of the rate (for example Bolsa (MEP), Contado con liquidacion (CCL) or Euro)
• currencyCode: the quoted currency, USD for the dollar rates or EUR, BRL, CLP, UYU for the other currencies
• buy: buy price (compra) in Argentine pesos, or null when the source does not quote a buy price
• sell: sell price (venta) in Argentine pesos
• spread: sell price minus buy price, in Argentine pesos, or null when buy is not quoted
• variationPct: the percent change for the day as reported by the source, or null when the source does not quote a daily variation
• currency: always ARS, the quote currency of the rate
• source: which public source the record came from (dolarapi.com or criptoya.com)
• updatedAt: when the source last refreshed this rate, as an ISO timestamp
• date: the calendar day of the data point, present only in historical mode
• observedAt: when this rate was last seen by the scraper
• error: null on success, or a short message when a source could not be read

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Argentine dollar rates does this scraper cover? It covers the eight commonly quoted dollar types: oficial, blue, bolsa (MEP), contado con liquidacion (CCL), tarjeta, cripto, mayorista and ahorro, plus four foreign currencies quoted in pesos: Euro, Brazilian real, Chilean peso and Uruguayan peso. You can collect all of them or pick a subset of dollar types with the Rate Types input.

Can I get historical exchange rate data? Yes. Set Mode to historical and the scraper returns the full daily evolution series of the official and blue dollar from Bluelytics, one record per day with buy, sell and spread. Leave Mode on current to get the latest rates instead.

Does it include the daily percent change? Yes. Each current dollar rate carries a variationPct field with the percent change for the day as reported by the source. Foreign currency records leave it null because the source does not publish a daily variation for them, and the scraper never invents a value.

Where does the data come from and how fresh is it? Rates are aggregated from public open sources, dolarapi.com and criptoya.com. Each record includes an updatedAt timestamp showing when the source itself last refreshed that rate, so you always know how current the price is.

Can I choose a single source instead of combining them? Yes. The Data Source input accepts dolarapi, criptoya or all. With all, dolarapi is used as the canonical feed and criptoya fills any missing buy or sell value and adds crypto stablecoin detail.

Why is the buy price sometimes null? Some rate types, such as MEP and CCL when read from criptoya, are quoted as a single reference price rather than a buy and sell pair. In those cases buy and spread are null and only sell is populated. The scraper never invents a value.

How many records will a run return? A full run returns up to eight records, one per dollar type. If you filter with Rate Types you get only the types you selected, and the Max Items input caps the count.
