Title: Re: Safe to give out API key? Post by: Automatic on December 13, 2013, 08:43:50 PM Never used coinbase, but, they should have a developer page, it'll tell you all the permissions an API key can have.

Quote API key authentication grants full access to an account, so it should be used with caution (see security notes below). Title: Re: Safe to give out API key? Post by: DeathAndTaxes on December 13, 2013, 10:11:29 PM I would create a new temporary account and give him that key. Otherwise ensure that you can revoke the key and generate a new one. Once the developer knows the key you can't make him unknow it. He could simply wait until someday in the future when the account holds a thousand BTC and remove them instantly.
