How to Create API Keys - KuCoin Spot & Futures

Create your API Keys on KuCoin and connect them with your Cornix account

Written by Dor

Step 1 - Enter the API Management section

Step 2 - Click on 'Create API'


Step 3 - API Permissions, Settings and Security: IP Whitelisting (Third-Party Integration)

Cornix fully supports IP whitelisting for your security on this exchange. However, instead of manually copying and pasting individual IP addresses, this exchange uses a more streamlined third-party application system.

How to configure it:

  1. In your exchange API settings, do not attempt to manually type or paste IP addresses into an IP restriction field. Leave any manual IP fields blank.

  2. Instead, Check "Connect to Third-Party Application" and choose "Cornix" from the list of trusted applications. This automatically applies the necessary IP restrictions in the background, keeping your connection completely secure without manual input.

  3. Set your API Key Name

  4. Check ✔ for 'Future Trading' & 'Spot Trading' in the Permissions section.

  5. Set your Passphrase (*make sure to remember it for the next steps)

  6. Click 'Next'

  7. Complete the following verification step with a verification code sent to your email address.

Step 4 - Copy your API Keys and insert them into Cornix.

Make sure you copy your API Key, Secret Key, and API Passphrase to create your KuCoin account on Cornix.

Step 5 - Add the API Key information in Cornix.

That's it, you're all set :)
