**Read access** - a permission to receive information on open positions, orders and account balances. This option is enabled by default.

Trade Access - a permission for trading operations with Spot and USDⓈ-M и COIN-M Futures instruments

3\) Optionally, you can add your trusted IP addresses in the **IP addresses** field to create a whitelist. In that case, the access to exchange from the API key will be only available from the mentioned IP addresses; trading operations from other IP addresses will be rejected by the exchange.&#x20;

4\) Click **Create API** to complete the action.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The secret key will only be shown once at the time the API key is generated. If you forget or lose the secret key, you will need to create a new API key.
{% endhint %}

5\) Copy the API key and Secret Key and keep them in a safe place, and click **Done**. After that, you will see the API Management page, which contains the information about the generated keys:

## Editing an API key

The previously created API key can be edited. The following actions can be applied:

* Change trading permissions (enable/disable trade access)
* Add or remove IP addresses from the whitelist.&#x20;

The keys will need to be inserted into the appropriate fields when setting up a connection to Binance exchange:

* To establish a connection to Binance within Tiger.com Windows app, [follow the instruction.](https://support.tiger.com/nastroiki/podklyucheniya/kriptobirzhi/tiger.trade-broker)
* Instruction for the Tiger.com macOS app is available [here](https://wiki-en-macos.tiger.trade/features/how-to-start/connect-to-exchange).&#x20;
