## Connecting your Kucoin wallet

### Kucoin Configuration:

* Refer to the [KuCoin.com API Documentation](https://www.kucoin.com/support/360015102174-How-to-Create-an-API) to learn how to generate an API key. 
  * You can also generate an API key directly from Kucoin UI under the account settings section: "API Management".\
    ![](/files/eQAAPWO6r7Br36REAhOK)
  * When creating a key we recommend naming the API key - "inabit", so there won't be any confusion with other future/existing keys. 
* After you confirm the validity of your new API key, keep a record copy of both the API Key and Secret Key. You will need them when adding this exchange to your organization.
* Make sure you've enabled the following API restrictions when generating the keys:
  * **General**
  * **Spot Trading**
  * **Transfer**
* Under the IP Restriction section, click on "Yes" and add the following IP to the list, as follows:![](/files/HY4WiK1AoWeSEzoX51N9)

```
35.233.10.83
```

2. This IP address **must** be whitelisted otherwise, the connectivity to inabit will fail.
   {% endhint %}

### inabit Configuration:

* Within the inabit platform, go to the wallets page and click on\
  "**Add new**".

  * **Wallet name**
  * **API key** (the one saved from Kucoin)

  * **Passphrase**
    * Also known as "Trading Password"
    * (A required 6 digit password that you've set for Kucoin API)
* Click on "**Connect** **Exchange**".

If all credentials are okay and the wallet name is valid, the connection should be successful and you can start managing the Kucoin wallet in your organization!<br>
