### API Access and data format

Historical data format is the same as provided by real-time Bybit Derivatives WebSocket API with addition of local timestamps. If you'd like to work with **normalized data format** instead (same format for each exchange) see [downloadable CSV files](/downloadable-csv-files/overview.md) or official [client libs](/api/quickstart.md) that can perform data normalization client-side.

{% tab title="Python" %}

```python
# pip install tardis-dev
import asyncio
from tardis_dev import Channel, replay

async def main():
    async for local_timestamp, message in replay(
        exchange="bybit",
        from_date="2024-01-01",
        to_date="2024-01-02",
        filters=[Channel(name="orderbook.50", symbols=["BTCUSD"])],
        api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",
    ):
        # messages as provided by Bybit Derivatives real-time stream
        print(message)

asyncio.run(main())
```

See [Python client docs](/python-client/quickstart.md).
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Node.js" %}

```javascript

const messages = replay({
  exchange: 'bybit',
  from: '2024-01-01',
  to: '2024-01-02',
  filters: [{ channel: 'orderbook.50', symbols: ['BTCUSD'] }],
  apiKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY'
});

```

[Tardis-machine](/tardis-machine/quickstart.md) is a locally runnable server that exposes API allowing efficiently requesting historical market data for whole time periods in contrast to [HTTP API](/api/http-api-reference.md) that provides data only in minute by minute slices.
