Limitations in the API documentation?

gully
Hi ,
Is there a dedicated document which has the limitations for the API?

As far as I remember the APIs are not able to retrieve open orders from previous day.
Where are such other limitations listed/documented?

    @gully This only applies to orders and trades. They are ephemeral and get cleared at the end of the trading day.

    Positions, holdings, margins etc. obviously get carried forward across days.

    @Kailash thanks for the clarification...what about limitation document?
  • Kailash
    @gully We don't have one right now, but we'll add a limitations section to the main document. Thanks for the suggestion.

    @Kailash is there ongoing development on the API front? In other words, are there new API being introduced or developed or enhanced?What is in the road map? is it possible to have a quick view on the backlog items for the Api development?

    @gully We have new features on the roadmap. However, the bulk of the effort at the moment is in revamping the underlying Thomson Reuter's architecture to improve the stability of the APIs (after the recent issues we've faced).

    Some major things we're working on:
    - Complete sandbox for testing and development
    - Using WebSockets for more than just data streaming. Live postbacks, and maybe even sending actual requests over WebSockets.
    - More API clients (Java, Javascript)
