This page explains how to get an API key for Bitfinex's transaction history.
Attention (as of January 27, 2022):
API connection is only supported for SPOT Trades. For other trades, please upload them separately as custom trades.
If the transactions fetched via the API and the transactions in the downloaded file are different, we cannot determine which is more accurate. Please check the transaction details 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.
