Space character in symbol name - HAWKINS COOK

ramatius
Hi,
There is a CM symbol "HAWKINS COOK" returned by the instruments API, which has a space character in it.

But the tokens data has it as "HAWKINCOOK",
130172420,508486,HAWKINCOOK,"HAWKINS COOKERS.",0,,0,0.05,1,EQ,BSE,BSE

This is throwing off our data loading module.

Also, data ticks are not coming (yet to double-check this though) for this symbol.

Pls look into this and update.

    Can you give us both endpoints?
    We only provide the data dump in the instruments master API. What are you comparing it with?

    Hi Sujith,

    The first endpoint is
    https://api.kite.trade/instruments?api_key=

    The second endpoint is
    https://api.kite.trade/margins/equity

    Thanks for looking into it.

    The margins data API will be deprecated. You can use this API instead of doing calculations at your end.
    This API will consider your pending orders and positions as well for calculating margins required.

    Hi Sujith,
    Does this API return the margins for all symbols in one go? Calling it for each symbol will be unwieldly.

    We usually call the margins endpoint just before market starts & use it for the day across all users.

    Pls advise.
