Bitget API Creation Guide

Important notes before you proceed:

- Please do not leak your key to avoid any loss of assets. The key is only presented once at the time of creation.

- For security reasons, we recommend that each API Key should not be bound to more than 10 IP addresses. If there is only one IP address, you can enter it directly. If there is more than one IP address, you should separate them with a semicolon.

For example: 192.168.1.213,192.168.1.214.,192.168.1.215

- A passphrase needs to be set when creating a new API.

If you want to use API to trade, please follow the instructions below:
