Getting 'invalid token' error only fir historical data

svsio

I have enabled historical data in my account



However, when I try and access this data, I get the following response

{
        "status" => "error",
       "message" => "invalid token",
          "data" => nil,
    "error_type" => "InputException"
}

The same token works for account info, margin info and quote. ie

for
/quote/?i=NSE:INFY
I get

{
    "NSE:INFY" => {
           "instrument_token" => 408065,
                  "timestamp" => "2019-12-18 12:01:58",

    }
}

I have regenerated the API secret and got a new token also but that didn't help.

What can I do to proceed?

Can you paste your complete code here and paste the complete stacktrace?
Make sure you run it in debug mode.

PS: Remove your auth header before posting stacktrace here.

I figured this out. The "invalid token" refers to the instrumnt token, not the access token. Zerodha, if you update the error message it will save developer some time :-)

thanks
