Diagnose and resolve Kraken API authentication and connection issues
Guided flows
Guided step-by-step flows for setup and operations.
Check error message: 'Invalid API Key' = wrong credentials. 'API Expired' = key disabled. 'Rate Limit' = too many requests.
Log into Kraken, navigate to Settings > API. Ensure your QuantumEdge key is active, not expired or deleted.
Verify the API key has the required trade permissions enabled on Kraken. QuantumEdge needs query and order management permissions to operate.
Try using the API key directly in Kraken's interface to verify it works. This helps determine if the issue is on the Kraken side or within QuantumEdge.
If the key is no longer valid, generate a new trade-only API key on Kraken and update it in QuantumEdge under Settings > Exchanges > Edit.
