Connect OKX#

Link your OKX account to Anboto with a trade-only API key.

Prerequisites#

  • A verified (KYC-complete) OKX account.
  • Futures/perpetuals trading enabled, if you plan to trade derivatives.
  • Funds in the account you want to trade from.

Create the API key on OKX#

  1. Log in to your OKX account.
  2. Go to My Profile → API Keys → Create V5 API Key.
  3. Under IP address, paste all of Anboto's IPs (separated by commas — see below).
  4. Under Permissions, enable Read and Trade.
  5. Set a Passphrase for the key and keep it, together with the API Key and Secret Key, at hand for the next step.

Permissions & IP allowlist#

  • The key needs read and trade access only. Never enable withdrawal — Anboto does not need withdrawal access.
  • Restrict the key to Anboto's IP allowlist. The IPs are specific to your Anboto account: find them in the app under Settings → Linked Exchanges and use the Copy all button. OKX accepts them comma-separated.
  1. Log in to pro.anboto.xyz and open Settings (top right) → Linked Exchanges.
  2. On the Link CEX tab, select the OKX tile.
  3. Enter the API key, Secret key, and Passphrase, then save.

Anboto validates the key against OKX as soon as you save. If you see an inline error, the most common causes are that the IP allowlist has not propagated yet or a permission is missing.

The passphrase cannot be recovered

You choose the passphrase yourself when creating the key, and OKX never shows it again. If you lose it, delete the key on OKX and create a new one.

Sub-accounts

Use Add sub account on the OKX tile to link keys for OKX sub-accounts. Sub-account names must not be main or Main.
