kiteconnect.exceptions.TokenException: Invalid `checksum`

Mwaghela

Untill yesterday my program was running successful. Today morning it started giving this error.

--I checked my api key and api secret : Its correct
--Generated a request token and used the same in
kite.generate_session(reqToken, api_secret=apiSecret)


Error : kiteconnect.exceptions.TokenException: Invalid `checksum`

Tried multiple times by generating new reqToken , still it gives the same error.

We haven't changed anything at our end. You can run with debug logs on and check the params that is being sent are correct or not?

Mwaghela

already done , the params seems to be correct.
I remember yesterday late night i started getting some exception related to permission (i assumed the server must be in maintenance).

Today morning it started giving this excecption. By any chance is something wrong with my api key/secret key after maintenance ?

I tried regenerating the secret key and using it, but still it shows same exception

Can you private message the api_key and app_secret? We will check and get back to you.

Also, paste the complete response from Kite Connect.

You were using wrong api secret while generating session kite.generate_session(reqToken, api_secret=apiSecret), as per the DM.
