KuCoin Futures – API

Create an API on KuCoin Futures to automatically upload your trades from KuCoin Futures to Waltio

Updated over a week ago

Hi there 👋

Kucoin Futures APIs are not the same as Kucoin APIs. If you have only traded in Spot or Margin, please go to this tutorial.

Step 1: Log into your KuCoin Futures account.

Step 2: Go to the API page.

Step 3: Select create a new API key.

Step 4: Name your API key, for example, Waltio.


Step 5: Create an API passphrase.

For permissions, select “general only.

Step 6: Copy and paste your API key and your secret key.

Step 7: Link your keys to Waltio

💡 We are limited in reading data from Kucoin Futures APIs. We cannot retrieve transactions dated before 01/01/2021.


⚠️ If you delete your keys or change the permissions, it will complicate the analysis.

1 - If you have already deleted your keys then we will not be able to synchronize

automatically. You will have to create a new one.

2 - If you have already modified your keys then we put in "disabled" mode the APIs encountering errors.

3 - If you correct afterwards, you will have to contact the support service via the chatbot at the bottom right of your screen because we perform weekly synchronizations.

4 - The deletion of the keys automatically leads to the loss of all the modifications (recording of labels, prices, etc...) made on the transactions recovered via API.

⚠️ If you add files containing trades read by API, then the relevant trades will be duplicated on Waltio. Our API gives you the choice if you already have KuCoin Futures files in your Waltio account.

It will ask you to choose between two options:


1 - The recovery of all data since the creation of your KuCoin Futures account.


2 - The recovery of all of your data since the date of your last transaction on your Waltio account.

If you have any other questions, do not hesitate to contact us via the chat just at the bottom right of your screen! 💬
