quote() Unable to get value

biswajit14

Hi,

I am using the following code:
#!python
from kiteconnect import KiteConnect

# Initialise.
kite = KiteConnect(api_key="your_api_key")

# Assuming you have obtained the `request_token`
# after the auth flow redirect by redirecting the
# user to kite.login_url()
try:
user = kite.request_access_token(request_token="obtained_request_token",
secret="your_api_secret")

kite.set_access_token(user["access_token"])
except Exception as e:
print("Authentication failed", str(e))
raise

print(user["user_id"], "has logged in")

# Get the list of positions.
print(kite.positions())
print(kite.quote("NSE", "INFY"))

Output:
I am able to get and get my positions, But the quote is giving error.

(u'XXXXXX', 'has logged in')
{u'net': [{u'day_sell_value': 0, u'day_buy_quantity': 0, u'last_price': 104, u'tradingsymbol':
Traceback (most recent call last):

kiteconnect.exceptions.TokenException: Invalid token

Please help me with this.

Hi @biswajit14,
The request token is valid only for few minutes and you can use it only once. Hence it is recommended to make

kite.request_access_token(request_token="obtained_request_token",
secret=your_api_secret")

this call only once.
After you get the access token, store it and reuse it instead of requesting again.
