How To Connect/Reconnect Bybit API With FinRev (UTA)


Before working through the steps in the following guide you must have upgraded your Bybit subaccount to a Unified Trading Account (UTA).


If you have not yet upgraded your account to a UTA, please follow this guide to complete the upgrade before proceeding with the steps in this guide.


Note: If you are editing permissions, or if your API keys have expired, you MUST generate a new API key, and connect the new API key to FinRev.


Important: Please DO NOT upgrade your API to 'UTA Pro' when prompted by Bybit. FinRev is currently not compatible with the upgraded API version.
