PreviousTesterNextConnect gate.io via API key

On the gonfig page, you can:

  • Connect API keys from your cryptocurrency exchange.

  • Restart the server.

  • View system logs.

  • Clear the cache (note: cache is used by robots to store data, so be cautious when clearing it).

What Are API Keys?

API keys are unique identifiers that allow robots to interact with your exchange account. They consist of two components: Key and Secret.

For Example:

Key: 9021196fadb94hdsts&92eefa213d2c135fd
Secret: e625d1b1c5f929c15761c22389465490465c5921700677200c10eb699e70fa5

Using these keys, robots can: retrieve quotes, perform trading operations (create, cancel, modify - orders).

Security Recommendations

To ensure the safety of your funds, follow these guidelines:

  1. Add server IP addresses where your robots are running to the API key whitelist. This restricts key usage to specified IP addresses only.

  2. Grant only necessary permissions. Most robots require only trading functions, such as:

    • Spot Trade

    • Perpetual Futures

    • Delivery Futures

Other possible permissions:

Wallet, Custody, Withdraw, Option, Subaccount, Commission Details, P2P, Account, Margin Trading , Earn, Pilot.
