Step 1

Open API keys in your Bitget account

Sign in to Bitget, open your account settings and choose API keys in the left menu, then click Create API key.

Step 2

Choose System-generated API key

Bitget asks which key type to create. Pick System-generated API key — it uses HMAC and returns a key and secret, which is what TradeAdapter signs with. The User-generated option is RSA and requires you to supply your own public key; such a key will not work here.

Bitget Select API key type dialog with System-generated API key highlighted
Step 3

Set a passphrase and grant trading permissions

Fill in the form for TradeAdapter. The passphrase is a separate secret you invent here — it is required on every API call alongside the key and secret.

  • Note — a name you will recognise later, for example tradeadapter
  • Passphrase — 8–32 alphanumeric characters; Bitget does not accept special characters here
  • Permissions — Read-write
  • Spot → Trade for spot routing, and Futures → Orders if you trade futures
  • Leave withdrawal, loan and sub-account permissions off
Bitget Create new API key form with Read-write permissions and Spot Trade enabled
Step 4

Bind the key to TradeAdapter and save credentials

Add the TradeAdapter address to the key's IP binding, finish the security verification, then copy the key, secret and passphrase — the secret is shown only once.

Bind this key to this IP 35.75.198.16
Step 5

Continue to TradingView webhook setup

Paste the key, secret and passphrase into your TradeAdapter Bitget connection, then continue to page 2 to connect TradingView alerts for real-time trade execution.
