FAQs
Rates are sourced from CurrencyBeacon and updated based on your subscription plan. The free tier updates hourly, while paid plans can refresh as frequently as every 60 seconds. The agent always fetches the latest available rate at the moment of the query, so customers receive the most current mid-market price.
Yes. CurrencyBeacon covers 170+ fiat currencies and over 2,000 cryptocurrencies. The agent can convert between any supported pair, whether that is USD to EUR, BTC to GBP, or ETH to JPY. Specify 'crypto' or 'fiat' when listing available currencies to see the full scope.
The CurrencyBeacon historical rates endpoint provides data going back to January 1, 1996. The agent can retrieve the exact exchange rate for any date within that range for any supported base currency. This is particularly useful for financial audits, invoice verifications, and historical reporting.
The convert endpoint takes a specific amount and returns the converted value in the target currency, ideal for customer-facing price quotes. The latest rates endpoint returns exchange rates for all or selected currencies against a base, useful for dashboards, comparisons, or when you need multiple rates simultaneously.
No. Every rate query triggers a live API call to CurrencyBeacon. Tars does not maintain a local cache of exchange rates. This ensures customers always receive the freshest available data rather than a potentially stale cached value.
The agent retrieves time-series data between two dates using the CurrencyBeacon timeseries endpoint, providing daily rates that can power trend analysis. While the agent presents the raw data conversationally, the structured output can be fed into visualization tools or dashboards for charting.
Sign up at currencybeacon.com and access your API key from the dashboard. The free plan includes 5,000 API calls per month with hourly rate updates. Enter this key in the Tars dashboard when connecting the Currencyscoop tool. Paid plans offer higher call limits and faster update frequencies.
The latest rates endpoint supports a symbols parameter that accepts a comma-separated list of target currencies. So the agent can retrieve rates for EUR, GBP, JPY, and AUD against USD in a single call. For individual amount conversions, each currency pair requires a separate convert call, but the agent handles these sequentially within the same conversation.
