Updated over 3 weeks ago

How do I get my Gate.io API key?

  1. Log in to your Gate.io account.

  2. Hover over the user icon, in the upper-right corner, to display the drop-down menu and select "API Management".

  3. In the next step, select "Create API key".

  4. You can now enter blockpit API Remark.
    Note the settings based on this image, do not use IP whitelisting for now:

  6. Click on "Submit", confirm the message in the next step and enter the necessary activation codes.

  7. Your API key and Secret are now visible in the next step.
    Your Secret is now shown only once and available to copy!

  8. To import your data, you must first create an Integration in the Blockpit Web App.
    To do so, click + Integration in the upper navigation.

  9. Select Gate.io from the list of exchanges, and then copy the API key and the Secret into the designated fields. Confirm your entries by clicking Create.

❗ Your API key will have to be renewed every 3 months. You can edit the Integration and renew your API key there.

💡 When using subaccounts, each subaccount must be imported into a separate Blockpit Integration. To do this, you must create a new Blockpit Integration using a special subaccount API key.

Which data can be imported via Gate.io API?

Your complete transaction history always serves as the basis for your tax report. Preferably, automatic API solutions are used to import your transactions. Our team is committed to implementing all API data provided by your exchange for you.

Using the following list, you can identify all products that are implemented:

Transactions

Supported

In case of missing transactions, you can help our support team via chat-request to include them in our import spectrum (if technically possible).

Not Supported

​⛔ Buy Crypto via Card
​​⛔ NFT Trades

Missing transactions can be found by comparing the actual history of your exchange. You can add these subsequently as individual manual entries or by migrating your CSV data into our Excel template.

Synced Balance

Supported

All General Balances

Not Supported

​⛔ Earn Balance

Assets in the earn account are temporarily (until the earn process is exited) not fully displayed in the Synced Balance of your Blockpit integration. However, this has no effect on the tax report, as no internal outflows (transactions) occur in the integration. The resulting Tip: Mismatched Balance can be ignored in this context. The “Reconcile Balance” function should not be used in this exceptional case!

If your Synced Balance is displayed incompletely, you can help our support team via chat-request to include it in our import spectrum (if technically possible).
