## Create a Binance key

To create the key, a Binance article describes how to do it: [](https://www.binance.com/fr/support/faq/comment-cr%C3%A9er-des-cl%C3%A9s-api-sur-binance-360002502072)[https://www.binance.com/fr/support/faq/comment-créer-des-clés-api-sur-binance-360002502072](https://www.binance.com/fr/support/faq/comment-cr%C3%A9er-des-cl%C3%A9s-api-sur-binance-360002502072)

In summary, you need to log in to your account <https://www.binance.com/fr/my/settings/api-management>, then navigate to "Api Management".

Then "Create API" in the upper right corner.

![Bouton pour créer une api](https://res.cloudinary.com/dy07rxvhu/image/upload/v1687093017/public/blog/Comment%20afficher%20ses%20wallets%20transactions%20Binance%20directement%20depuis%20Excel/Untitled_4_ntgqzo.png)

We have 2 choices: system-generated or self-generated, the simplest is to take the system-generated one.

![2 choix : généré par systeme ou auto généré](https://res.cloudinary.com/dy07rxvhu/image/upload/v1687093021/public/blog/Comment%20afficher%20ses%20wallets%20transactions%20Binance%20directement%20depuis%20Excel/Untitled_5_evqd00.png)

We fill in the name and validate. Simple, isn't it?

The key is now created, with API Key and Secret Key. 2 important points:

* The secret key is your password, keep it aside and never share it with anyone
* Keep the API restrictions to "Allow Read". This limits access to read-only and **does not authorize operations on the account.** So no risk of unexpected transfers.

S﻿o, you now have an api key that we can use, but let's dive a bit more on the differents possibilities

![List of api keys to check](https://res.cloudinary.com/dy07rxvhu/image/upload/v1706684763/public/docs/API_permissions_m4zp9t.png)



**API Restrictions:**

* ***Enable Reading:*** Allows the API key to access and read information from the associated account.
* *Enable Spot & Margin Trading:* Grants permission for spot and margin trading using the API key.
* *Enable Margin Loan, Repay & Transfer:* Permits the API key to initiate margin loans, repay them, and transfer funds related to margin trading.
* *Enable Futures:* Authorizes the API key to engage in futures trading.
* *Enable Internal Transfer:* Allows the API key to perform internal transfers within the associated account.
* *Permits Universal Transfer:* Provides the capability for universal transfers, likely across different types of assets or accounts.
* *Enable Withdrawals:* Grants the API key the ability to initiate withdrawals from the associated account.
* *Enable Symbol Whitelist:* Permits the API key to manage a whitelist of symbols, likely for specific trading pairs or assets.

**IP Access Restrictions:**

* *Unrestricted (Less Secure):* This setting allows the API key to be accessed from any IP address. It is considered less secure as it opens the possibility of unauthorized access.
* *Restrict access to trusted IPs only (Recommended):* The recommended setting restricts API key access to trusted IP addresses only, enhancing security by limiting access to specified, trusted locations.



F﻿or LinkyFlow, you need 

* **Enable Reading** to be able to access your own wallet 
* **Enable Spot & Margin Trading** to be able to create order from Excel

I﻿P Access restrictions won't work, because to be able to access Binance, LinkyFlow is going through an AWS server (located to Francfort). If you need a fixed IP, you can directly contact us.

I﻿t's totally OK to start with a Read Only api key, you will be able in the futur to create a new api key with Read & Write permission, then remove your read only api key and add your read & write key.

Focus on understanding the API permissions and what they mean
