Before you start, please make sure you complete your Binance account verification.

Binance allows API key creation only for accounts that have completed their basic and intermediate verification.
If you haven't completed both of your account's Basic and Intermediate verification procedures, kindly go back to Binance and complete them.

Once your account is verified, you will be able to complete the steps.

1. Log in to Your Exchange Account

  • Open your preferred web browser and navigate to www.binance.com

  • Enter your credentials to log in.

2. Navigate to API Management

  • Once logged in, click the profile icon, then [Account].

3. Go to [API Management], then click [Create API].

Please note that before creating an API key, you need to:

4. Choose the API key type.

  • You will have the option to have Binance's system generate your API keys (the popular choice).




5. Provide your API with a name.

  • Provide a name or label for the new API key, such as 'Cryptobots'



6. Complete Security Verification

After clicking on Next and completing the slide captcha, a modal should pop up, which will require you to insert an email or phone number verification code, your Google verification code, or your Pass Key credentials.

For the email or phone number verification code to be sent to you, you will need to click the Send Code button as displayed below.

  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): If 2FA is enabled on your account, you will be prompted to enter the code from your authentication app (e.g., Google Authenticator).

  • Email Verification: You may receive an email with a verification link or code. Click the link or enter the code as instructed to confirm the API key creation request.

  • Pass Key

7. Edit API Permissions

  • Before providing the API information to Cryptobots.io, you will need to make sure that the correct API permissions are selected.

  • Navigate to the top right corner and select "Edit restrictions."

8. Allow access to cryptbots.io IP addresses.

  • Select "Restrict access to trusted IPs only (Recommended)" :
    Which opens up the field to enter IP addresses.

  • In the IP address field, you need to add a set of IP addresses that will be provided by us on the day that you create the keys. 
    Please click on the bottom right corner and let us know you need the set of IP addresses for Binance and we try our best to respond within 10 minutes. 

    After you have sucessfully pasted the set of IP addresses we will provide, you can continue to the next step. 

9. Select allowed permissions:

You are now allowed to select the necessary permissions that cryptobots.io needs to function properly.

  • Press the save button on the top right corner after finishing with the changes.
    You might need to go through security validation once again.
