4. Select “System-generated API key”:

5. In the popup window, enter a name for the key “Note” and set a password “Passphrase (API token)”.

Important: Remember or write down the “Passphrase (API token)” as it will be needed later to access the account.

6. Check the relevant boxes:

If you are setting up a copy-trading account on Bitget to connect investors, ensure you check the “Trade” box (this can also be set after creating the API keys).

7. Enter the following IP addresses exactly as shown (with commas and no spaces): 34.77.149.145,34.78.125.125,35.195.215.50

8. The keys (‘Access APIKey’ and ‘SecretKey’) must be copied to a secure location or immediately entered into the form on the ‘API Keys’ page.

Please avoid taking photos or screenshots of the keys and using your smartphone to extract the text, as this method will introduce errors.
