Generating the API Key

Generating the API Key​

Before sending any requests, you'll need to generate a new API key.

This can be done in the Exchange website under User Center > API.

After generating the key, there are two things you need to carefully note down:

  • API Key
  • Secret Key

API Key and Secret are randomly generated by the system and cannot be modified. Default settings will be set to "Can Read" only, and you have the option of adding or removing certain permissions for your API Key via Web UI.

You can optionally specify a whitelist of IP addresses when generating the API Key. If specified, the API can only be used from the whitelisted IP addresses.
