How to download historical option data which has expired.

gbdeepak

Hi,
I am trying to download historical option data whose contracts are not valid right now.
I am using kite.historical_data() api, I provide instrument_token which was valid at that time and period I want the data.
I am getting
kiteconnect.exceptions.InputException: contract not found
error

Can someone please let me know how it is done.
Thanks.

Yes, Kite Connect doesn't offer expired options candle data.

As, stated by Sujith above we provide continuous day interval candle data for expired futures contracts, not for options contracts. Go through the documentation here.
