# 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.

```
18.180.195.116 13.114.235.19 18.181.102.105 35.75.215.133 54.65.212.219 52.196.177.46 35.76.223.130 35.77.250.223 18.180.239.100 3.113.78.104 18.181.158.39 54.65.86.241 52.199.152.174 54.250.232.158 52.69.38.104 54.64.139.96 52.194.90.124 13.113.149.88 52.199.229.99 43.206.9.80
```

{% 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>
