API keys

To fully leverage the OpenBB Platform you need to get some API keys to connect with data providers. Here are the 3 options on where to set them:

  1. OpenBB Hub
  2. Local file

1. OpenBB Hub

Set your keys at OpenBB Hub and get your personal access token from https://my.openbb.co/app/platform/pat to connect with your account.

Once you log in, on the Platform CLI (through the /account menu, all your credentials will be in sync with the OpenBB Hub.)

2. Local file

You can specify the keys directly in the ~/.openbb_platform/user_settings.json file.

Populate this file with the following template and replace the values with your keys:

{
  "credentials": {
    "fmp_api_key": "REPLACE_ME",
    "polygon_api_key": "REPLACE_ME",
    "benzinga_api_key": "REPLACE_ME",
    "fred_api_key": "REPLACE_ME"
  }
}
