WebSocket Connection Error

Im getting the following error when I try to connect to KiteTicker..

Connection error: 1006 - connection was closed uncleanly (WebSocket connection upgrade failed (403)

Found a similar post but that was a little different then what Im facing.

It means authentication is failing. It means either you are passing an invalid access token or api_key.

Not sure if that is the reason.. Have the following code:


API_KEY = 'xxxx'
REQUEST_TOKEN = 'yyy'
API_SECRET = 'zzz'

kite = KiteConnect(api_key=API_KEY)
kws = KiteTicker(API_KEY, REQUEST_TOKEN)

data = kite.generate_session(REQUEST_TOKEN, api_secret = API_SECRET )

# THIS IS WORKING:
all_instruments = kite.instruments(exchange = kite.EXCHANGE_NFO)

# Assign the callbacks
kws.on_ticks = on_ticks
kws.on_connect = on_connect
kws.on_close = on_close

# THIS THROWS ERROR
kws.connect()

My bad. I didn't know access token and request token were different
Can close
