• Under "Security," toggle the "Developer Mode" option to "Enable."

• Click "Create API Key."
• Enter a descriptive name for the key and select the necessary permissions.
• Review the terms and conditions carefully before clicking "Create."

5. Troubleshoot Common Errors

  • Retry the process after some time.
  • Contact Coinbase support for assistance.
• "Invalid Permissions"
  • Ensure that you have selected the correct permissions for your intended use.
  • Remove any unnecessary permissions and try again.
• "Limit Reached"
  • Each Coinbase account has a limit on the number of API keys that can be created.
