The `coinbase` component lets you access account balances and exchange rates from [coinbase](https://coinbase.com).
You will need to obtain an API key from coinbase's [developer site](https://www.coinbase.com/settings/api) to use this component. You need to give read access to `wallet:accounts` in order for the component to access relevant data.
## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
To set it up, add the following information to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
coinbase:
api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
api_secret: YOUR_API_SECRET
```
{% configuration %}
api_key:
description: Your API key to access coinbase.
required: true
type: string
api_secret:
description: Your API secret to access coinbase.
required: true
type: string
account_balance_currencies:
description: List of currencies to create account wallet sensors for.
required: false
type: list
default: all account wallets
exchange_rate_currencies:
description: List of currencies to create exchange rate sensors for.
required: false
type: list
{% endconfiguration %}
Possible currencies are codes that conform to the ISO 4217 standard where possible. Currencies which have or had no representation in ISO 4217 may use a custom code (e.g. BTC). A list of values can be obtained via https://api.coinbase.com/v2/currencies, for more information visit [the Coinbase API documentation](https://developers.coinbase.com/api/v2#get-currencies).
