Title: Help with Blockchain.info Create Wallet API
Post by: bitcoinrama on April 08, 2014, 06:04:43 PM
Hello my friends!

I am a new programmer, pulled into this awesome world through the gateway of Bitcoin, trying to use the Blockchain.info create wallet API. I keep receiving an error message that my API key is incorrect but it is copy + pasted from the email I received so that seems unlikely to me.

Let me know if there is something I am messing up or if it really is my API key that is giving me grief.

http://blockchain.info/api/create_wallet (http://blockchain.info/api/create_wallet) <-- API details

I am trying a get request as such:

https://blockchain.info/api/v2/create_wallet?password=$testtest12?api_code=$my_Api_Key

Where my_Api_Key = the key that was supplied to me via email

Thanks in advance!

While some API dont care about the URL blockchain.info might.

When you register for the API key you usually have to give them an URL. I know steam does not care if the request come from that URL or from somewhere else, they dont even check that. Maybe blockchain does. Do you test this from your server or from your home PC?
