How do I get my FTX Exchange API key?
The FTX Exchange integration is deactivated as FTX has shut down the API on 11.11.2022 Existing data in your FTX integration will be preserved, but no new data can be imported. We recommend not deleting existing integrations.
- Log into your FTX account.
- Click on the profile button in the upper-right corner and select "API".
- Then select "CREATE READ-ONLY API KEY".
- To import your data, you must first create an Integration in the Blockpit Web App.
To do so, click + Integration in the upper navigation. - Select FTX from the list of exchanges, and then copy the API key and the secret into the designated fields. Confirm your entries by clicking Create.
- Now select "Close" on FTX, leave the API restrictions set to "Read-only" and disable "Withdrawals enabled" and "Internal transfers enabled".
- Do not use IP whitelisting.
When using FTX subaccounts, each subaccount must be imported into a separate Blockpit Integration. Therefore, you have to create a new Blockpit Integrationby using your subaccount API key.
When creating subaccounts on the FTX platform, no special characters or spaces should be used in the subaccount name.
Valid example: "SecondAccount"
Which data can be imported via FTX Exchange API?
Your complete transaction history always serves as the basis for your tax report. Preferably, automatic API solutions are used to import your transactions. Our team is committed to implementing all API data provided by your exchange for you.
Using the following list, you can identify products that have not yet been implemented and either add them to your Integration manually or via a CSV export:
Transactions:
Supported
Deposits & Withdrawals
Fee Payments
Spot Market Trades
Leverage Token Trades
PnL for Futures Trades (Profit, Loss, Fee, and Funding)
Reward & Distributions (Staking, Lending, Airdrops, Bounties, Hardforks)
Margin Trades & Borrows
(missing Borrow transactions due to incomplete API on exchange side - Missing History Issues should be cleared by manually created deposits).
Stock Trades
In case of missing transactions, you can identify them in the history of your exchange and help our support team via ticket to include them in our import spectrum.
Synced Balance:
Deactivated due to FTX shutdown
If your Synced Balance is displayed incompletely, you can help our support team via ticket to include it in our import spectrum (if technically possible).

How do I solve problems with my FTX Exchange Integration?
-
Blockpit shows different Tips (indicators) in the Dashboard and your Transactions list depending on the type of problem you are facing. The following procedure can help you to solve these problems.
Please always synchronize all your integrations first using “Synce All” (Dashboard) and then start a calculation of your transaction data using “Recalculate ” (Transactions) before you analyze Tips or the performance values of your portfolio.
Product updates provided by Blockpit have no direct effect on existing transaction data in your Integration (precautionary measure to avoid changing existing transaction histories through automatic product updates), so creating a new Integration could bring it up to date and solve your problem (Tips) already.
1. Create a new Integration
Temporarily create a second Integration to be able to compare the new and old Integration. Then delete the Integration that you do not want to keep.

Alternatively, it is possible to re-synchronize missing or incorrectly imported transactions. In order not to damage existing transaction histories and to avoid new duplicate transactions, we recommend the following article:
> How can to synchronize integrations or re-synchronize missing/incorrectly imported transactions?
2. Label or merge Unlabeled Transactions
Unlabeled transactions can be subsequently categorized with a corresponding label, edited or merged into Trades or Transfers by selecting related transaction pairs. It is also possible to change the labels of multiple similar transactions collectively (bulk edit).

3. Manually edit, exclude or delete transactions
If you should still see Tips, it is possible that these were caused by incorrect transactions or transactions that were imported twice. These transactions can be edited as follows.

4. Add new transactions
If transactions have not been fully imported, you can add them individually or upload them directly to your integration using the Blockpit XLS Template.
