Please ensure that you have followed the previous steps in our master guide for connecting FinRev with Hyperliquid before completing this step.

Important Note for US & UK users: Please ensure you have activated your VPN & set the location to Sydney, Australia prior to logging onto the dYdX website.

Hyperliquid API keys expire every 180 days. We will send you an email with a reminder to re-connect your FinRev account, but please ensure you've set your own reminder to re-connect your account prior to 180 days.

1. Ensure you're logged onto https://app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade & you've connected your wallet
2. Click on 'More'
3. Click on 'API'

4. You should now see the screen below

Note: If you see an API entry already in the list entered as app.hyperliquid.xyz, this is normal - please proceed with the steps.

20. Critical Step: Store your Hyperliquid API Private Key in a safe place using all standard cryptocurrency security protocols.

28. Navigate back to the tab with your FinRev account

Please note that the balance and figures displayed on the FinRev dashboard may be incorrect for the first 24 hours, as the API needs to fetch the data from your Hyperliquid account in order to update and correct the dashboard.
