getting started with Authenticated login #415

Closed joe-wojniak closed 3 years ago

joe-wojniak commented 3 years ago

I'm getting started with Authenticated login to the Coinbase Pro Sandbox:

auth_client = cbpro.AuthenticatedClient(key, b64secret, passphrase, api_url="https://api-public.sandbox.pro.coinbase.com")

the Coinbase Pro docs give a code snippet for generating the b64secret, but the class interface is nearly identical to the cbpro auth_client definition above.

Do I need to instantiate the CoinbaseExchangeAuth class to generate the b64secret?

Here's a link to the Coinbase.com code snippet: https://docs.pro.coinbase.com/?python#signing-a-message

Thanks!

Passing the api key, secret, and passphrase to the cbpro.AuthenticatedClient creates the Coinbase message signature. You do not need to instantiate the CoinbaseExchangeAuth class.

Hey, I was wondering if you can shred some light on how you got both the api key and secret from coinbase pro?

I just started learning how to use the coinbase pro api, and have been reading the 'Generating an API Key' of the coinbase pro api reference. It said that: The Key and Secret will be randomly generated and provided by Coinbase Pro

I went to https://pro.coinbase.com/profile/api, and created a API key, but the only thing it gave me was the Client Secret. Thanks for the help! @joe-wojniak

it's given to you when you complete the api key request. i had to do it twice before figuring out what it was. [image: image.png]

@joe-wojniak Thanks a lot for the help. I just realized that the API Secret that I got from the pop up window is different than the one appeared on https://pro.coinbase.com/profile/api. Thanks again for the help!!!

Happy to help. Do you want to collaborate on your project? I have some simple demo code that uses cbpro.
