A comprehensive guide on how to generate your API keys on Crypto.com!

Important Note: This guide will walk through how to create an API Key for the Master account, however this process remains the same if you wish to create an API specific to a sub-account. You would simply need to "Switch Account" to your desired sub-account on the bottom left menu once logged in (refer to image in Step 2).

Step One: Log in to your Crypto.com account at https://crypto.com/exchange

Step Two: After signing in, select your Dashboard from the top right (1), then Settings in the bottom left (2). Following this, select API Keys from the central tabs (3) and the click "Create a new API key" (4).

Step Three: Set a label for your API key. In our example we chose to make it “How To Guide”. We recommend making the label as descriptive as possible to reflect the use case of the specific API.

Step Four: Verify the permissions of the API Key are correct

You want to ensure that Can Read is enabled, and all functions relating to trading, transfers, and withdrawals are disabled. This should be the case by default, however it is important to double-check at this stage as the Hash Data tool will deny the API key if any trading functions are enabled.

Be sure to record your Secret Key in a secure location, as this key will be permanently hidden once the page is refreshed.

Step Five: Enter your API keys into the Hash Data tool

Log into the Client Portal of the Hash Data tool, then navigate down to Exchange Accounts (1), selected Add Exchange (2), then enter your keys where prompted (3). As reference, the "API Key" from Crypto.com is the "" in the Hash Data tool.

Step Six: Click "Test Keys" and let that complete.

If the test sends an error in response, please re-review the information entered and the permissions associated with the API key. The software has a number of checks in place to prevent users from uploading keys with "Edit" capabilities, so this is the most common source of errors.

Once the keys are tested and no errors are noted, click "Submit".

Congratulation - the Hash Data tool is now able to read your exchange account!
