Connect Bybit read-only

Create a dedicated API key in Bybit API Management and select Read-Only. Do not enable SpotTrade, SpotConvert, Order, Position, transfer or withdrawal permissions.

Fail-closed validation

MyCryptoPilot requires both:

  • Bybit's explicit read-only indicator;
  • no trading scope in the returned permissions list.

A contradictory response — for example readOnly: 1 together with Order — is rejected. Network errors and missing permission metadata are also rejected.

Lifecycle

Only one exchange connection is supported per account. Disconnect the current one before switching. To revoke access completely, disconnect in MyCryptoPilot and delete the key in Bybit.

The product reads balances and historical activity only. It never creates, updates or cancels an order.
