Kite 3: Expiry Field in Instruments - Datetime or String?

razcads
Hi
The expiry field in response to instruments call (python) is returning a datetime object as in datetime.date(2018, 5, 31)
However your documentation indicates a string. In previous kite version it used to be a string object.
What is the correct format string or datetime? Is the documentation in kite 3 wrong or?
Thanks
Raz

    Are you referring to quote call or instrument dump?

    The raw data will have a string like this '2018-07-26'. In pykiteconnect, all the dates are served as date object hence we have changed it to the date object.

    ok.. do change your documentation then. It states type is string. It should actually be a datetime object.

    Are you referring to API documentation or pykiteconnect documentation?
