Upon successful API key generation, make sure to copy and store your secret key somewhere safe, as you will not be able to recover it later.

Pionex Import Limitations

Pionex's API has built-in limitations which may prevent you from acquiring any transaction history older than 3 months. For this reason, you may consider switching to the File Import method for Pionex instead.
