To get started with Coinbase Business, sign up for a Coinbase Business account here. Once your account is ready, create an API key on the Coinbase Developer Platform (CDP).
API Key authentication should only be used to access your own account. To securely access the accounts of other Coinbase users, use Coinbase Business (OAuth2).
