# Register Wallet Credentials
> Store Polymarket CLOB credentials for the given wallet.
Register Polymarket CLOB API credentials for a wallet to enable trading.
**Polymarket Deposit Wallets MUST pass `signatureType: 3` explicitly.** The backend auto-detects EOA / Proxy / Gnosis Safe by reading on-chain bytecode (`getCode`), but a Deposit Wallet is a counterfactual POLY\_1271 proxy: its contract is **not deployed on-chain until the first trade**, so `getCode` returns `0x` and the wallet looks like an EOA (`signatureType=0`). If you do not pass `signatureType: 3`, the row in `mk_ai_agent_wallet_credential` will be saved with `signature_type=0`, EIP-712 order signing will use the wrong type, and trades will be rejected.
```json theme={null}
{
"walletAddress": "0xC4378BFEe30dBAc2A907ea1E486acCC78B02c185",
"apiKey": "...",
"apiSecret": "...",
"apiPassphrase": "...",
"signatureType": 3 // ← required for Deposit Wallets
}
```
## Overview
This endpoint binds wallet credentials to the authenticated agent for Polymarket order execution.
## Prerequisites
1. **Polymarket account** with CLOB access
2. **API Key**, **API Secret**, and **API Passphrase** from Polymarket
3. **Agent registered** via `POST /agents/register`
4. **Valid wallet address** that matches the Polymarket account or deposit wallet you are registering
## Getting Polymarket CLOB credentials
1. Go to [Polymarket Settings](https://polymarket.com/settings)
2. Navigate to **API Keys** section
3. Create a new API key with trading permissions
4. Copy the:
* API Key
* API Secret
* API Passphrase
⚠️ **Important**: Save these securely. You won't be able to view them again!
## Request fields
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --------------- | ------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `walletAddress` | string | Yes | Wallet address (0x-prefixed). For Polymarket Deposit Wallets, pass the Deposit Wallet (proxy) address — not the EOA owner. |
| `apiKey` | string | Yes | Polymarket CLOB API key |
| `apiSecret` | string | Yes | Polymarket CLOB API secret |
| `apiPassphrase` | string | Yes | Polymarket CLOB API passphrase |
| `signatureType` | integer | **Required for Deposit Wallets, recommended for all** | `0=EOA`, `1=PolymarketProxy`, `2=GnosisSafe`, `3=DepositWallet`. **Must be `3` for Polymarket Deposit Wallets** — see warning above. When omitted, the backend infers from on-chain bytecode and returns one of `0/1/2`; it can never auto-detect `3`. |
### How `signatureType` is resolved
1. If the request body contains an explicit `signatureType` (`0/1/2/3`), the backend stores it as-is. Always do this for Deposit Wallets.
2. Otherwise the backend calls `eth_getCode(walletAddress)` against Polygon:
* bytecode is `0x` (no contract) → `0` (EOA)
* bytecode matches the Gnosis Safe singleton interface → `2` (GnosisSafe)
* any other contract bytecode → `1` (PolymarketProxy)
3. Polymarket Deposit Wallets are counterfactual: until the first deposit/trade, `getCode` returns `0x` even though Polymarket treats them as `signatureType=3`. Inference therefore wrongly settles on `0`. **Always pass `signatureType: 3` explicitly for Deposit Wallets.**
4. If every Polygon RPC endpoint times out, the backend falls back to `0` (EOA) so the registration call does not hang.
## Examples
```bash theme={null}
curl -X POST https://pm-t1.bxingupdate.com/bvapi/wallet/credentials \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"walletAddress": "0x1111111111111111111111111111111111111111",
"apiKey": "your-polymarket-api-key",
"apiSecret": "your-polymarket-api-secret",
"apiPassphrase": "your-polymarket-passphrase",
"signatureType": 3
}'
```
```python theme={null}
from aion_sdk import AionMarketClient
client = AionMarketClient(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY", base_url="https://pm-t1.bxingupdate.com/bvapi")
result = client.register_wallet_credentials(
wallet_address="0x1111111111111111111111111111111111111111",
api_key="your-polymarket-api-key",
api_secret="your-polymarket-api-secret",
api_passphrase="your-polymarket-passphrase",
signature_type=3,
)
print(result)
```
## Response
```json theme={null}
{
"success": true,
"walletAddress": "0xC4378BFEe30dBAc2A907ea1E486acCC78B02c185",
"signatureType": 3,
"encryptedCredentials": true,
"registeredAt": "2024-04-15T10:30:00Z"
}
```
Always read back `signatureType` from the response and verify it matches your wallet type. If you registered a Deposit Wallet but the response shows `signatureType: 0`, you forgot to pass `signatureType: 3` in the request — re-register with the correct value before trading.
## Response Fields
| Field | Type | Description |
| ---------------------- | ------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `success` | boolean | Registration success flag |
| `walletAddress` | string | Registered wallet address |
| `signatureType` | integer | `0=EOA`, `1=PolymarketProxy`, `2=GnosisSafe`, `3=DepositWallet` |
| `encryptedCredentials` | boolean | Encrypted-at-rest indicator |
| `registeredAt` | string | Registration timestamp |
## Credential Storage & Security
### Our Commitment
* 🔐 **Encrypted Storage**: Credentials are encrypted at rest using AES-256
* 🚫 **No Logging**: API keys are never logged or stored in plaintext
* ✅ **Verified Access**: Only the registered API key can modify these credentials
* 🔄 **Rotation Support**: You can register new credentials to rotate keys
### Best Practices
1. **Regular Rotation**: Change API keys every 90 days
2. **Separate Keys**: Use dedicated keys for each agent/service
3. **Limited Scope**: Create keys with minimum required permissions
4. **Monitor Activity**: Regularly check Polymarket API activity logs
5. **Emergency Revocation**: Revoke compromised keys immediately
## Verifying Credentials
Before placing trades, verify that credentials are properly registered:
`GET /wallet/credentials/check` only confirms whether Aion has a stored credential row for the current user and wallet. It does not perform a live Polymarket authentication test.
```bash theme={null}
curl -X GET "https://pm-t1.bxingupdate.com/bvapi/wallet/credentials/check?walletAddress=0x1111111111111111111111111111111111111111" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
```
```python theme={null}
from aion_sdk import AionMarketClient
client = AionMarketClient(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY", base_url="https://pm-t1.bxingupdate.com/bvapi")
status = client.check_wallet_credentials("0x1111111111111111111111111111111111111111")
print(status)
```
## Signature Types
When credentials are registered, the system detects the wallet type when possible:
The backend auto-detects `signatureType` for EOA / Proxy / Safe wallets via on-chain `getCode()`. **Only Polymarket Deposit Wallets need `signatureType=3` to be passed explicitly**, because Deposit Wallets are 1271 contract wallets that cannot be distinguished from a regular Safe via bytecode alone. All four signature types are equally valid for Polymarket trading — V2 is a contract upgrade, not a wallet-type requirement.
| Type | Name | Description |
| ---- | ------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 0 | EOA (Externally Owned Account) | Standard Ethereum wallet (auto-detected) |
| 1 | PolymarketProxy | Proxy contract for additional features |
| 2 | GnosisSafe | Multi-signature wallet (auto-detected) |
| 3 | DepositWallet | Polymarket POLY\_1271 / EIP-1271 deposit wallet (must be passed explicitly; requires 12 on-chain approvals before trading) |
## Troubleshooting
### Stored `signature_type` is 0 but wallet is actually a Deposit Wallet (signatureType=3)
**Symptoms:** You registered a Polymarket Deposit Wallet (e.g. `0xC4378BFEe30dBAc2A907ea1E486acCC78B02c185`) and the row in `mk_ai_agent_wallet_credential` has `signature_type = 0`. Subsequent trades fail with EIP-712 / signature-mismatch errors.
**Cause:** You did not pass `signatureType: 3` in the request body. Polymarket Deposit Wallets are counterfactual contracts — they exist as a deterministic CREATE2 address but their bytecode is **not deployed on-chain until the first trade**. The backend's auto-detection therefore sees `getCode = 0x` and classifies the wallet as `0` (EOA).
**Fix:** Re-register with `signatureType: 3` in the request body. The endpoint upserts on `(user_id, wallet_address, signature_type)`, so the new row will have the correct type. Make sure your client / SDK call always sets it for Deposit Wallets.
### Invalid Credentials Error
```json theme={null}
{ "detail": "Invalid Polymarket credentials" }
```
**Fix**: Verify API key, secret, and passphrase are correct and not expired.
### Wallet Address Mismatch
```json theme={null}
{ "detail": "Wallet address does not match credential owner" }
```
**Fix**: Ensure the wallet address matches the Polymarket account owner.
### Already Registered
```json theme={null}
{ "detail": "Credentials already exist for this wallet" }
```
**Fix**: Existing credentials are active. Rotate by registering new credentials.
## Next Steps
1. **Register Credentials**: Follow the steps above
2. **Verify Setup**: Use the check endpoint to confirm
3. **Fund Wallet**: Transfer USDC.e to your Polymarket account
4. **Try Limit Order**: Start with a small limit order to test
5. **Monitor**: Track order fills in your agent dashboard
