}Authorizations
The key's UUID.
Unix milliseconds. ±30 s.
Standard padded base64 of the NOVIG-V3 signature.
Body
application/json
Opens the subaccount, its wallet, and its one trading key in one transaction.
Response
Opened. keyId is the new trading key and the subaccount's address.
One row per live key. A subaccount opened through the API has one live key, so the listing reads one row per subaccount.
