How to create and set up Bitget API key

Here, we show you how to generate and connect Bitget API key to the Doblox trading platform.

Doblox is a trading platform that allows you to trade and analyze in numerous cryptocurrency exchanges, monitor media and social media and use many other features in an all in one interface.

To do so, you should use an exchange API key. This is a safe and reliable way to use a trading platform because it does not give access to your confidential data as Doblox also does not access any funds management (withdrawals & deposits).

API Key (Access Key): This key authenticates users and specifies which account is connecting to the third-party service.
Secret Key: This key establishes an additional security layer by demanding a confidential token for request authentication.
Passphrase: Often generated by users, this passphrase acts as an extra security measure.
IP Whitelist: In late 2022, as a result of heightened security measures, exchanges started expiring API keys periodically. Consequently, platforms like Doblox now offer the ability to specify IP whitelist addresses, aiming to enhance security without burdening users with the need to frequently change API keys.

Note: You can connect several exchange accounts to your Doblox account to speed your trading and make it more sophisticated and smoother with less stress and exhaustion.

If you haven't created a Bitget account yet, you can start the process by following this link

Click on profile (the dummy icon on the upper right-hand corner of the screen). When the drop-down menu is open, choose the “API Keys” option.

On the new page, click on the “+Create API Key” button (If you haven't done the verification process, here Bitget asks you to do it).

A pane is open. Choose the “System-generated API Key”.

A long pane appears which you should scroll; on the first section of the pane, fill the “Note field” with a name like “Doblox” and the “Passphrase” field with a chosen password. Also check the “Read-write” box under the “permissions” part.

Turn on/off other options on other sections like image below (pay attention that all the “withdraw” and “transfer” permissions should be unchecked). After turning on all the necessary permissions, click on the “Next”.

Here you should do verification on your mobile and email. Press “Send” to receive the code. Fill in the blanks and then click “Verify”.

Your “Access API key” and "Secret key” are created. Copy and record the keys in a secure location to use them in further steps below (We insist on recording them somewhere else because the “Secret Key” might be shown just once and goes away as you close the pane or go to another page). Click on the “verify”.

Now go back to your account in Doblox and follow the instructions below.
When you enter your Doblox account, click on the profile (dummy icon) on the upper right-hand corner of the panel and choose the “Exchange Management” option.

A pane is open, choose the “Exchanges/Wallets” tab.
In this tab, click on the “+ Exchange” button on the right of the page.

Another pane is open which you should fill the fields with the information (Keys) you received from Bitget (You can fill the “Nickname” field with whatever name you like. Here we suggest filling it with “ My Bitget”).

Choose Bitget from the first drop-down field (Exchange).

Fill the “API key” and “Secret key” Fields with the given keys that you took from Bitget.

Important: You can use the code in the “API Whitelist” field for future steps.

Now click on the “Add Exchange” button.

Now your Bitget account is connected to Doblox and you can enjoy trading. Please check if the API is synced by going to [profile > “Exchange Management” > “Exchanges | Wallets” tab].
