Could you please guide me through the process of generating a Kucoin API key? I'm not quite sure where to start, and I'd appreciate it if you could provide detailed steps. Do I need to log in to my Kucoin account first? And where can I find the option to create an API key? Also, are there any specific permissions or settings I should configure for the API key? Lastly, is there any security measure I should take while generating or using the API key? Thank you for your help!

The Passphrase, on the other hand, is a personalized security measure that you set yourself when creating the KuCoin API. It adds an extra layer of protection, ensuring that only those with the correct passphrase can access your API functions.

When creating an API key on KuCoin, it's essential to jot down three crucial pieces of information: the Key, the Secret, and the Passphrase. The Key and Secret are automatically generated and provided by KuCoin for authentication purposes.

Once you have these three elements securely recorded, you can proceed to utilize the KuCoin API for various trading activities. One such function is the "/api/v1/accounts" method, which allows you to retrieve detailed information about your KuCoin accounts.

When using the "/api/v1/accounts" method, it's important to ensure that your API key has the necessary permissions to access account information. You can configure these permissions during the key creation process on the KuCoin website.
