¶ Table of Contents
- Step 1: Navigate To API Management Screen
- Step 2: Create a New API Key
- Step 3: Add API Key to TradeGrub
¶ Step 1: Navigate To API Management Screen
- Log in to your CoinEx account at https://www.coinex.com.
- Navigate to your Profile icon and select API Management from the dropdown.
¶ Step 2: Create a New API Key
Please AVOID selecting the "Withdrawal" or "Transfer" options when adding an API key, as these are not needed for our app to operate.
- Click on Create API Key.
- Set an API Remark (e.g., "Tradegrub Integration") and add Applicable IP addresses
- For security purposes, it is highly recommended to whitelist specific IP addresses to safeguard your API key.
- To whitelist our IP address, refer to the guide - Add Tradegrub IP
Avoid using unrestricted settings, as they significantly reduce account security.
- Select the required Permissions:
- Trade.
- Enter your Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) code for verification.
- Click Next after confirming the details.
- Save the API Key and Secret Key securely, as the secret key will only be displayed once.
Note: If no IP address is linked, the API key will be valid for 90 days only. You can extend the validity by adding an IP whitelist or renewing the API key every 90 days.

Currently, there is no official sandbox URL specifically for CoinEx API testing. Please refer to the official documentation for updates.
