OANDA Exchange Rates API - Partner operation

The OANDA Exchange Rate API operation defines how to interact with your OANDA account and represents a specific action (such as retrieving real-time or historical FX data) performed against supported data objects. Each operation represents a GET request and should be configured separately based on your integration needs.

You should create a separate action/operation component for each object/data combination (e.g., real-time rates, historical rates, or currency pairs metadata).

Actions

The OANDA Exchange Rate API connector enables automated access to trusted, audit-grade FX data to support business-critical operations such as pricing, forecasting, reconciliation, and compliance.

Available action

  • GET: Retrieves data from OANDA’s FX data platform based on the selected resource type (e.g., exchange rate, historical data, or metadata).

Operations

Each OANDA operation implements a specific task related to data retrieval. The operations use GET requests and support multiple data formats: JSON, CSV, and XML.

Inbound actions

  • GET: Used to pull exchange rate data into your Boomi process.

Outbound actions

  • Not applicable (this connector is read-only and does not support Create, Update, or Delete actions).

Custom actions

  • Not supported (the OANDA Exchange Rate API connector is designed for secure, controlled data retrieval only).

Extension objects

Depending on the selected action, the following object types (resources) are available for interaction via the Boomi OANDA Exchange Rate API Connector:

  • Real-Time Exchange Rate: Retrieves current spot FX rates between specified currencies.

  • Historical Exchange Rate: Retrieves past FX rates for selected dates or ranges.

  • Currency Metadata: Provides supported currency codes and available FX pair combinations.

  • Custom Rate Types (if enabled on the subscription): Central bank or proprietary rate feeds.

note

All resources are based on institutional-grade FX data from OANDA's platform.

Archiving and Tracking tabs

The Archiving and Tracking tabs are available for the OANDA Exchange Rate API Connector in Boomi. Standard Boomi behavior applies:

  • Archiving enables the preservation of payload data for review or auditing.

See the topic Connector operation’s Archiving tab for more information.

  • Tracking provides visibility into connector activity within process execution.

See the topic Connector operation’s Tracking tab for more information.
