### copy and paste the API and secret keys into aarnâ. <a href="#copy-paste-keys" id="copy-paste-keys"></a>

**copy and paste the secret key into** aarnâ **now** — Coinbase will hide the key if you leave the page. if that happens, you will have to delete the key and start over.

**next, copy and paste the key labelled “API key” into the API key field and similarly for the secret key.** aarnâ will then automatically attempt a connection to your Coinbase account.

if an error occurs, you must delete the API key in Coinbase and try again with a new key.&#x20;

if your Coinbase box on the profile page looks like the image below, the connection was successful:
