Query regarding Static IP requirement for Kite Connect API (Data-only Usage)

dannyroy
I understand that a static IP will be mandatory for API-based order placement, effective October 1, 2025.

My current use of the Kite Connect API is solely for fetching historical and real-time market data, and does not involve order placement, modification, or cancellation.

Could you please confirm if API keys used exclusively for data consumption will be exempt from the static IP whitelisting requirement?

    Kite Connect is purely an execution platform. For your data requirements, you will need to contact an exchange-authorised data vendor.

    Hi I have a Static IP from fixie.org. but how to insert this in Kite API to get whitelisting done

    We are awaiting an update from the exchange, as discussions on this matter are still ongoing, and the deadline for the algo implementation is likely to be postponed. We will share any updates with you as soon as we receive further information.

    @dannyroy The IP whitelisting setup is currently in progress. While collecting IP addresses is a straightforward step, the process also requires changes to the order flow, which will take additional time to implement and test. We are awaiting these updates from our vendor.

    We will share further updates as soon as we receive more information from both the vendor and the exchange. Additionally, a detailed blog will be published on Z-Connect, and we will continue to keep this developer forum thread updated once we have greater clarity.
