HOW TO CONNECT COINIGY TO CRYPTOPIA STEP-BY-STEP
We’re going to start this process by going to your ‘Topia account and getting your API keys. Those keys will be added to your Coinigy account so that Coinigy can securely access the Cryptopia trading platform.
Step 1. Login to your Cryptopia account and in the drop down below your account name, click on “Settings”
Step 2. On the left navigation beneath your avatar click on the “Security” tab, you will now be asked to enter your 2FA pin code if you’ve set one.
Step 3. You need to create a new API key. Checkmark “Enable API” and “Enable Withdrawal”, and then click on “NEW KEY” in the API settings section.
You will now have a randomly generated API key and API secret that you will need to save for Coinigy.
Step 4. In a new tab log into Coinigy, and click on “Settings” and then click on “API Accounts”
Step 5. In the Coinigy API Accounts section, click on “Add New Exchange” and then select Cryptopia from the dropdown list.
Step 6. Fill out the fields below, this is where you need your API key and API secret from Cryptopia.
Name this account connection whatever you want, Cryptopia seems relevant.
Copy and paste the API key you got from Topia into it’s correct field. It must be EXACT, no extra spaces, etc.
Copy and past the API secret into its correct area. Again, being exact is the name of the game here.
Step 7. Click confirm.
Now Coinigy is connected! There’s one last step before you can make trades.
Step 8. Make sure to check mark “Trading” and “Active” on the accounts section of your API connections or Cryptopia won’t be connected..
Step 9. Is your Cryptopia account already funded? If not, Coinigy can’t make any trades. Go fund it now!
Remember that Coinigy is a front-end trading environment and tool for your exchanges, not an exchange itself. You need to have an active balance of coins on Cryptopia for Coinigy to read that data and let you trade.
OK! That should be it! It’s super easy. It may take a little while for Coinigy to show your Cryptopia balances and let you trade, but once you’re balance shows up, you’re good to go and can start trading right away!
