Now that you have set up the integration, here is how you can pull in your data:
- Go to the stack and keep the first column or any column as the reference (here it will say -- the cryptocurrency symbol of particular cryptocurrency) for collecting your data.
- In the second column, connect to the Coin Market Cap API and rename the column, select "API" as the column property and choose CoinMarketCap as the API.
- Add in the symbol or slug of the crypto that you want to prospect, click on the refresh arrow and you see the API work on the stack and the data start filling in the consecutive columns (you get to decide, which data you want to access by selecting it from our data explorer) -- just make sure you change the column names and property beforehand; repeat with other columns.
