What this example covers

  • Bitget REST API JavaScript example.
  • Uses the Siebly Bitget SDK package bitget-api instead of hand-written HTTP request plumbing.
  • Source path: Bitget/V2 - Classic/Rest/rest-trade-futures.ts.
  • Example category: V2 Classic.
  • Imports SDK symbols including RestClientV2, WebsocketClientV2.
  • Calls SDK methods such as on(), subscribeTopic(), getFuturesAccountAssets(), getFuturesContractConfig(), futuresSubmitOrder(), getFuturesPositions().

How to use this example

  • Start here for the specific request or stream pattern, then check the matching SDK guide for install, credentials, and operational notes.
  • Open the repository source when you need the latest committed version: GitHub source file.
