Setting up Kraken

Step-by step instructions on how to link your Kraken account to Awaken.

Written by Andrew Duca

Kraken currently requires creating API keys in order for Awaken to sync your data properly. It should only take a minute or two via the instructions below.


Quick Setup

1. Go to pro.kraken.com and login

2. In the top right, click on the profile icon and go to the "Settings" page.

3. Go to the "Connections & API" tab.

4. Click on the "Create API Key" button.

5. Create a new API Key with "Query", "Query closed orders & trades", and "Query ledger entries" selected. Please do not select any other checkboxes. This will give Awaken readonly access to your account for tax purposes. Awaken will not be able to withdraw, deposit, or trade on your behalf.


And that is it! If you have any questions, you can email team@awaken.tax and we'd be happy to help you as always.
