This page explains how to get an API key for Bybit's transaction history (SPOT and Deriv).
Please be sure to check here for more details about our support for Bybit.
Important Notes
1. API key is valid only for 3 monthsBybit/API expires in 3 months, therefore, you need to create a new API key and re-establish the connection every 3 months. For details on how to do this, please refer to here.
NEW: On January 19th, 2023, we have made our IP open to the public. You can now set up your API to have no expiry. For details on how to set this up, please refer to here.
2. Historical transactions
For Bybit/API, it is unknown how far back in history it can get the data from. (Spot trades which is more than 6 months old are likely to be not retireved from the API).For file export, the specification is that you can export up to two years of data. For trade history that cannot be obtained via the API, you need to either download the exchange file and upload it, or upload as custom trades.
3. For transaction types not supported by API nor files, use custom trades
Please be sure to check here for more details about our support for Bybit.
4. Always do a final check
If the transactions fetched via the API and the transactions in the downloaded file are different, Cryptact cannot determine which is more accurate. Please check the transaction details by yourself thoroughly after they are fetched via the API. If you find any missing transactions, please send us the downloaded file and the API details via the Support button at the bottom right. We will check the details.
