How to connect your OKX account in Vestinda
In order to connect your account from OKX Exchange to Vestinda, you first need an API KEY.
An API KEY is a secure way to allow Vestinda to read your balance and automate investments. It acts as a secret authentication token and you can control the level of access. Vestinda needs read access to track your portfolio and trading access to automate your investments. No withdrawal access is needed; we recommend you keep this permission unselected.
Create an API key in OKX
Step 0
Make sure you have 2FA activated by either linking your mobile phone number or your Google Authenticator.
Step 1
Login to your OKX account and go to API Keys section from the menu. If you don’t have a OKX account yet, consider opening one here.
Step 2
Once you got to the API key management list, first click on Create API key.
Step 3
On the new page:
- Choose a name for your API Key, something like Vestinda to identify it easier.
- Enter the API Passphrase. This is a password that you must remember (note it down now) as it will be used when connecting OKX to Vestinda.
- Then select all Key Permissions for Trading and Reading data. Don't select the Withdraw permissions. Once done, click on the Confirm button. Make sure you only use this API KEY inside the Vestinda app. You can keep no IP restriction for now.
Step 4
Once you confirm on the above step, you will have to confirm this with an email code and the 2FA code. Ask for the code via email and introduce it + introduce the Google Authenticator code. Once you introduce the details you can click the Confirm button.
Step 5
You will see this screen. Make sure you save your API key and Secret key to have it at hand in the next step.
Congrats! 🎉
Now your API key is ready. It will appear like this in the API Keys area in OKX.
