  At BYDFi, we understand the importance of managing your Coinbase API key securely. One of the best practices we recommend is to use a dedicated API key for each application or service that interacts with your Coinbase account. This allows you to easily track and manage the access permissions for each API key. It's also important to regularly review and update the access permissions of your API keys to ensure they align with your current needs. Additionally, consider implementing rate limits for your API key to prevent abuse or unauthorized usage. Regularly monitor the API key usage and review the associated logs to detect any unusual activity. If you notice any suspicious activity or believe your API key has been compromised, immediately revoke it and generate a new one. Following these best practices will help you effectively manage your Coinbase API key and maintain the security of your account and funds.
