Binance API

I recently purchased gunbot from gunbot.com and received the following email:

Hi!

Thank you for the order of Gunbot and welcome to the Gunbot World.

We need some information from you to be able to activate your license.

1. API-key
2. Exchange name

Please send that to us and we will get back as soon your license is activated.

Is this normal? 

I attempted to retrieve my API-key from binance, but am not sure how to go about doing so.  Binance asks me to Enter API key label

Where do I get the API key label?  I am clearly a newb, so your patience and assistance would be much appreciated.  Thanks.

Hi Rioriente,

To answer my own questions (and maybe help you in the process): 

Yes, it is normal for gunbot.com to request your API Key.  Once they have your API key, you will be activated on their end.  Your API key will also act as your activation code once you download and install gunbot: https://github.com/GuntharDeNiro/BTCT/releases
The API key which you send to gunbot.com will be your "Master API Key," and again will double as your activation code.  Later your can add multiple APIs for other exchanges, but must retain your original API to keep your license active. 

As far as obtaining your API key from Binance: 
When Binance prompts you to Enter API Key Label, simply type in anything (gunbot will work).  Proceed as prompted and Binance will provide you with your API key and secret code (save both as you will need to copy and paste into the GUI to activate your gunbot).
