1．Our Support Status for Poloniex
1.1 Types of transactions that can be retrieved
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.

1.2 Time period that can be retrieved
We can only retrieve transaction history from July 30, 2021
Due to the exchange's specifications, transaction history prior to July 30, 2021, cannot be automatically imported. Please manually enter this data into a Custom File and upload it.

2．Important Notes
The API may be disabled depending on the specifications of the exchange.
According to Poloniex, starting from September 2020, they conduct reviews of inactive API keys at least quarterly. If a customer does not respond to the notification sent by the exchange, the exchange will disable the API key. (This information is quoted from Poloniex's website.) If your API key has already been removed by the exchange, you will need to delete the old API connection and establish a new one to reconnect it.
