Hi,
I was trying to place order using CURL. Below command is working fine with trading symbol (ACC), but facing issue with BANKNIFTY. I downloaded the instrument names from kite connect only. Below is the command i'm trying to use. I searched the forum but could not get the answer, please help on this..

curl https://api.kite.trade/orders/regular -H "X-Kite-Version: 3" -H "Authorization: token xxxxxx:xxxxxxxxx" -d "tradingsymbol=BANKNIFTY20JAN31000PE" -d "exchange=NSE" -d "transaction_type=BUY" -d "order_type=MARKET" -d "quantity=20" -d "product=NRML" -d "validity=DAY"

You need to send the exchange as NFO for all NSE F&O instruments.

tradingsymbol=BANKNIFTY20JAN31000PE" -d "exchange=NSE"

Exchange should be NFO, not NSE.You can go through this documentation to know, about complete order params.
