About API Keys
The API key is a kind of password that we can use to grant external software the right to access the data of our KuCoin account or sub-account. Zeta Broker needs the following API key so that the algorithm can send orders to the crypto account. The software monitors market price changes 24 hours a day and initiates buy and sell orders according to the set parameters.
