Handling Common API Errors in Python (Crypto Edition)

(Series 1 - eBook 7)

Stop Crashes. Start Controlling Chaos.

Tired of scripts breaking mid-run? Confused by HTTP 400, 401, or 429 errors? This eBook is your go-to field manual for troubleshooting API errors like a professional Python developer—especially if you're building crypto data tools, bots, or dashboards.

Whether you're fetching live prices, querying Whale Alert, or using CoinGecko’s endpoints, your app is only as strong as its error handling. This guide shows you how to bulletproof your API logic with real-world Python examples, retry strategies, debugging workflows, and clean logging.

What You’ll Learn:

✔ Why errors like 400, 401, 429, and 500 occur—and how to fix them

✔ How to build resilient scripts that retry failed API calls

✔ How to debug like a pro with try, except, and status codes

✔ How to avoid crashes, rate limits, and silent data failures

✔ How to secure your API keys using .env files & environment variables

✔ How to integrate fallback providers and notification alerts

Who This Guide Is For:

✔ Crypto developers pulling from APIs like CoinGecko, Whale Alert, LunarCrush

✔ Data analysts working with multiple API data sources

✔ Python devs building dashboards, price aggregators, or bots

✔ Traders & researchers automating trading strategies or on-chain analytics
