Uncheck Default Security Controls

info

In January 2023, Binance introduced a new process for creating API keys.

The default option offered to the user is the "Default Security Controls" setting, which is not suitable for Trading Connector API as it requires the API key to be tied to a specific IP address. To create an API key that is compatible with Trading Connector API, you must uncheck the Default Security Controls option.
