📊 Step 1: Export Data from Ledger Live

Manual CSV Export (For Spreadsheets & Tax Tools)

Open Ledger Live and go to Accounts.
Click the “Export” button (top-right).
Select CSV or JSON format and date range.
Import into:
- Google Sheets/Excel (for custom tracking)
- Koinly/CoinTracker (for automated tax reports)

Scheduled Exports (Advanced Users)

Use Python or Node.js to auto-export data:
python
Copy

import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv(“ledger_export.csv”)

df.to_csv(“auto_portfolio_report.csv”) # Update daily
Run scripts via Task Scheduler (Windows) or cron jobs (Linux/Mac).

🤖 Step 2: Automate with Third-Party Tools

Tool	Automation Features	Ledger Integration
Koinly	Auto-sync via CSV, tax reports	CSV upload
CoinTracker	API-based tracking	Manual CSV/WalletConnect
CoinStats	Real-time portfolio alerts	CSV/API sync
Google Sheets	Custom formulas + scripts	CSV import

Example: Koinly Auto-Tax Reporting

Upload Ledger Live CSV to Koinly.
Set auto-sync for weekly updates.
Generate capital gains reports instantly.

⚙️ Step 3: Custom API Solutions (For Developers)

Since Ledger Live lacks a public API, developers can:

Parse CSV/JSON exports programmatically.
Use WalletConnect for DeFi tracking (e.g., Zapper.fi).
Build Discord/Telegram bots for balance alerts.

python

Copy

# Sample Python script for portfolio alerts

import requests

from datetime import datetime

def get_ledger_balance():

df = pd.read_csv(“ledger_export.csv”)

btc_balance = df[df[“Currency”] == “BTC”][“Amount”].sum()

return f”BTC Balance: {btc_balance} (Updated: {datetime.now()})”

# Send to Discord webhook

webhook_url = “YOUR_DISCORD_WEBHOOK”

requests.post(webhook_url, json={“content”: get_ledger_balance()})

🔒 Security Best Practices

✔ Never expose private keys in scripts/APIs.
✔ Use read-only exports (no signing permissions).
✔ Verify third-party tools (avoid scams like fake Koinly sites).

💡 Pro Tips for Automation

✔ Schedule weekly CSV backups (avoid data gaps).
✔ Label transactions (e.g., “Staking,” “Airdrop”).
✔ Compare Ledger data with exchanges (Binance, Coinbase).

🚨 Limitations

No real-time API (manual exports required).
DeFi/NFTs may need manual tagging.

🚀 Advanced: Self-Hosted Portfolio Trackers

Run a Bitcoin node + Electrum for UTXO-level tracking.
Use Specter Desktop for multisig reporting.
