1．Our Support Status for Kraken
You can check the support status of API endpoints for exchanges on the ”Supported Exchanges & Blockchains” page.
If an exchange provides transaction history via API, we will automatically reflect that data. However, if the exchange does not supply certain information through API or if the provided files lack transaction details or are unclear, those transactions cannot be automatically imported. In such cases, please upload the transaction history manually using a custom file.
