# Creating API keys

API keys are essential tools for connecting external applications to cryptocurrency exchanges. They act as a bridge, enabling software to interact with your trading account on the exchange.

With API keys, you gain real-time access to market prices, charts, and order book data, ensuring you stay informed and responsive to market changes.

API keys generated in Tiger.com Broker are identical to those created directly on exchanges. This means you can use them seamlessly in the Tiger.com terminal or with other applications.

Tiger.com Broker users can create API keys for the following exchanges:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://broker-docs.tiger.com/english-2/creating-api-keys.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
