e = kucoinf.json()
kucoinf = json_normalize(e['data'])
print (kucoinf)

Answer 1

I recommend you use the CCXT library as it will make your life easier for what you are trying to do.

To retrieve Kucoin spot market order book:

import ccxt

exchange = ccxt.kucoin()

symbol = 'BTC/USDT'
order_book = exchange.fetchOrderBook(symbol)
print(order_book)

To retrieve Kucoin futures market order book:

import ccxt

exchange = ccxt.kucoinfutures()

symbol = 'BTC/USDT:USDT'
order_book = exchange.fetchOrderBook(symbol)
print(order_book)
