KuCoin API Connection Guide

  1. Log in to your KuCoin account

    Open KuCoin and log in to your account. If you do not have an account yet, create one first and complete the basic security setup.

  2. Check access to futures

    Before connecting the API, open the Futures / Derivatives section on the exchange. If the exchange shows an activation window, trading guide, risk notice, or introductory steps, confirm them and complete the short setup. Usually, this is enough to activate futures trading on the account.

KuCoin notes

For KuCoin, One-Click connection is used, so the user does not need to manually copy API Key and Secret Key. The connection is confirmed on the KuCoin side. After confirmation, the user automatically returns to BRAIN. During confirmation, KuCoin may request Trading Password, email code, and 2FA code. If after confirmation the status does not change to Connected / Active, try refreshing the Mini App or repeating the connection.
