provide optional parameters for "GET /api/v3/exchangeInfo"

API Spot/Margin API

Currently, it is not possible to get exchangeInfo of only about a specified symbol. For example, to get the symbol (and its details) of BTCUSDT, I must call GET /api/v3/exchangeInfo. Maybe some parameters to pre-filter the exchangeInfo would be nice, for example:

// fetch only one symbol
GET /api/v3/exchangeInfo?symbol=“BTCUSDT”

// fetch only exchangeFilters
GET /api/v3/exchangeInfo?exchangeFilters

Hi, I don’t see major need for the requested feature, you can simply filter locally by looking for the “BTCUSDT” symbol, although thank you for sharing your opinion, we’ll register this.

@aisling yes, there is no major need for that, however, imagine that all users must request the whole exchangeInfo (when they only want to lookup one or a few symbols) which will load the binance server more. Now imagine, how many requests a day is made for that use case and how much traffic and response size can be avoided by pre-filtering exchangeInfo through rest arguments.

Hi, there is some news about this filter?
thanks
