The secret key is displayed once only, so make sure you copy it or write it down and keep it in a safe place.

Restrict your API keys to trusted IPs only. To do so, click on the Edit restrictions button in the upper right corner.

Enable API restrictions (see the screenshot above). In our case, we enable Futures trading and Spot/Margin trading

  • Note, please that for the Futures trading option to be enabled, you need to pass a test to activate Futures trading for your Binance account! If you haven’t passed a test on Binance, Futures trading will remain inactive. 
  • Do NOT enable Withdrawals if you want to protect your funds!!!

Save the changes. 

Complete the security verification step.
