Support For Limited-Access API Keys

We've been hard at work on BitMEX! This week sees a round of new performance updates and optimization. The page should load more quickly and should perform more reliably. A number of external software vendors are beginning to integrate BitMEX trading into their products. To that end, we have now launched limited-permission API keys so you can share access to your account with confidence. Our full release notes:

• API Keys now have apermissionsfield. By default, any API Keys created after September 23, 2015 are read-only keys.

  • At this time, two permissions are available:orderandwithdraw.

  • Theorderpermission is required to create or delete any orders.

  • Thewithdrawpermission is required to initiate a withdrawal. Withdrawals initiated from an API key do not require email confirmation, but a notification message will be emailed.

  • API keys still be used to change user preferences, reset passwords, create two-factor keys or create/delete/modify any other API keys.

• Two-factor authentication can now be disabled via the Account panel without contacting support.

• Rendering improvements in Windows, especially in IE.

• Some tweaks to the basic trading UI to make relevant data more prioritized.
