Key Generation and Usage

The current implementation is for testing purposes only. It is only compatible with Gdax trading platform thus far. You'll need to first head over to Gdax, login and generate an API key, explained below.

  1. Login to Gdax and go to the API settings page here

  2. Under the permissions selections check the box for 'view'

  3. copy the auto generated passphrase and keep it somewhere, you'll need it later

  4. Click "Generate API Key'

  5. you will then see the public API key and a secret key copy both of these we will use them in the next step.

  6. finally you should have these three things

    1. public key
    2. secret
    3. passphrase

  7. once you have these head over to your browser (assuming you have followed the installation and startup instructions above) and enter them into the app in their respective places. Here
