How do I get my Gate.io API key?
- Log in to your Gate.io account.
- Hover over the user icon, in the upper-right corner, to display the drop-down menu and select "API Management".
- In the next step, select "Create API key".
- You can now enter blockpit API Remark.
Note the settings based on this image, do not use IP whitelisting for now:
- Grant the API key permissions listed in the image, and be sure to enable strictly the "Read Only" option.
- Click on "Submit", confirm the message in the next step and enter the necessary activation codes.
- Your API key and Secret are now visible in the next step.
Your Secret is now shown only once and available to copy! - 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 Gate.io from the list of exchanges, and then copy the API key and the Secret into the designated fields. Confirm your entries by clicking Create.
Your API key will have to be renewed every 3 months. You can edit the Integration and renew your API key there. When using subaccounts, each subaccount must be imported into a separate Blockpit Integration. To do this, you must create a new Blockpit Integration using a special subaccount API key.
Which data can be imported via Gate.io 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 all products that are implemented:
Transactions:
Supported
Deposits & Withdrawals
Fee Payments
Spot Market Trades
Margin Trades
Leverage Token Trades
Futures Trades PnL (Profit, Loss, Fee and Funding)
Earn: Rewards & Distributions (Staking, Lending, Airdrops, Bounties, Hard Forks)
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.
Not Supported
Buy Crypto via Card
NFT Trades
If an import of your transactions via API is not available on exchange side, you can also add these transactions manually or by migrating your CSV data into our Excel template.
Synced Balance:
General Balance
Please note the information about how the asset balance is calculated in this article.
If balances are displayed incorrectly, you can help our support team via Ticket to add them to our API import scope.
Not Supported
Earn Balance
Assets in the earn account are temporarily (until the earn process is exited) not fully displayed in the Synced Balance of your Blockpit integration. However, this has no effect on the tax report, as no internal outflows (transactions) occur in the integration. The resulting Tip: Mismatched Balance can be ignored in this context. The “Reconcile Balance” function should not be used in this exceptional case!
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 Gate.io 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).
> Basics on Labeling and Merging of Transactions
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.
