**Important:**&#x20;

* For Centralized Exchanges (CEX), you must whitelist our IP Address, please follow the steps to find the I.P. address to whitelist.&#x20;
* To do this, copy and paste the IP address displayed on the screen into the respective Exchange's API Management section.

Once your keys are successfully connected, they will appear in your list of accounts on the **Key Management** page and the **Portfolio** page.

## Authorized Groups (Institutional Plan Only)

Superuser accounts can assign API keys to specific user groups.

2. Navigate to the **Assign Permissions** section.
3. Assign accounts to the appropriate user groups.

Users in authorized groups can now see balances and trade using the permissioned accounts. The authorized key will be displayed as `<owner>/<account_name>`. To revoke authorization, delete the permission row from the **Admin Panel** for the specific group and account.
