# Creating a Blofin API Key

Login to your account on Blofin.com, open the profile menu and select the **API** option. There click the **Create API Key** button.

Ensure **Connect to Third-Party Applications** is activated and select **Insilico Terminal** in the drop down menu.

Give your Api Key a **Name**.

Enable **Trade** Permission. The key does **not** have withdrawal access for your security.

Enter a **Passphrase** for the Keys and retain it, as it will be required when adding to the Terminal.

### IP Access Restrictions <a href="#ip-access-restrictions" id="ip-access-restrictions"></a>

For better key security, you can restrict IP access in the **IP field** and whitelist our server IPs. Hover over the box below and press the 'copy' button on the right to copy the text.

```

```

{% hint style="info" %}
It's important you copy and paste **all** of the IPs. There are 20 in total.
{% endhint %}

Click on **Next**. Enter Security Codes if asked.

Copy the key to the [Terminal API Key input form](https://docs.insilicoterminal.com/documentation/setup/adding-your-api-key-to-the-terminal) or store them securely. Back in the Blofin modal click on Confirm.<br>
