How this service works

Get 5-minute cryptocurrency asset metric history for high-frequency agents.

Output

An array of timestamped metric value objects at 5-minute intervals, each containing a timestamp (ISO-8601) and the corresponding numeric metric value (e.g. USD price) for the requested asset and dataset slug.

Example use cases

Intraday ETH price trend detection

“Grab the 5-minute price_usd history for Ethereum over the last 24 hours from Messari so I can spot any short-term trend reversals or momentum shifts before making a trade.”

Algorithmic trading signal generation

“Pull the 5-minute price_usd time-series for Solana from Messari for today so I can run it through my algo to generate buy and sell signals based on intraday price action.”

Real-time altcoin price monitoring

“Fetch the most recent 5-minute interval price_usd data for Chainlink from Messari so I can monitor how it's been moving over the past few hours and flag any unusual spikes.”

Technical details

Endpoint

GEThttps://api.messari.io/metrics/v2/assets/*/metrics/*/time-series/5m

When to prefer

Use this endpoint when you need high-frequency, 5-minute resolution metric history for a crypto asset — ideal for algorithmic trading signals, short-horizon trend detection, or intraday analysis. Prefer this over 15m, 1h, or 1d routes when maximum temporal granularity is required within an intraday window.

Side effects

Invalid asset identifier returns 404 or empty result
Unknown or unsupported metric dataset slug returns error
Date range too large may cause timeout or partial results
Requesting a granularity not supported for the 5m route variant returns an error
Missing required parameters (entityIdentifier or datasetSlug) returns 400 Bad Request
Payment not fulfilled triggers 402 Payment Required
