client_id in Bitstamp's API

In Bitstamp's API documentation, a client_id is mentioned. It is used to generate a signature. https://www.bitstamp.net/api/

But I couldn't find how I can get that client_id.

Any hint on that? Many thanks.

The page where you change password on Bitstamp presents you your client id (contains letters and digits).

Use this code to get idea. This is Ruby code

require 'open-uri'
require 'json'
require 'base64'
require 'openssl'
require 'hmac-sha2'
require 'net/http'
require 'net/https'
require 'uri'

def bitstamp_private_request(method, attrs = {})
  secret = "xxx"
  key = "xxx"
  client_id = "xxx"
  nonce = nonce_generator

  message = nonce + client_id + key
  signature = HMAC::SHA256.hexdigest(secret, message).upcase

  url = URI.parse("https://www.bitstamp.net/api/#{method}/")
  http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
  http.use_ssl = true

  data = {
    nonce: nonce,
    key: key,
    signature: signature
  }
  data.merge!(attrs)
  data = data.map { |k,v| "#{k}=#{v}"}.join('&')

  headers = {
    'Content-Type' => 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
  }

  resp = http.post(url.path, data, headers)
  console_log "https://www.bitstamp.net/api/#{method}/"
  resp.body
end

def nonce_generator
  (Time.now.to_f*1000).to_i.to_s
end

I have some probelm with bitstamp api
below is my code php

$message = $nonce.$client_id.$api_key;

$signature = strtoupper(hash_hmac('sha256', $message, $secret_key));

$post_string = 'api_key='.$api_key.'&signature='.$signature.'&nonce='.$nonce;

$url = "https://www.bitstamp.net/api/balance/";

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 4);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_string);

$json = curl_exec($ch);

if(!$json) {
    echo curl_error($ch);
}

curl_close($ch);
$tempData = json_decode($json);

print_r($tempData);<br>

Output:

stdClass Object ( [error] => Missing key, signature and nonce parameters )

Did you register for an API key via their instructions? They say:

To get an API key, go to "Account", "Security" and then "API Access". Set permissions and click "Generate key".`

Once you have the API key, you use a HMAC encoded of the API key, API secret, and your customer/client id. You should be able to get your client id by going to the "Account Balance" page, where I believe it's referred to as your "Customer ID".
