    You will get redirected after you put your login credentials in and successfully login.

    but i am trying to automate the trading as an individual trader where i do not want to enter the username and password manually. is there any api that takes the login credential and return me the request_token?

    of course i can use selenium and automate the process of entering the username and password but i want to know if there is any way simple approach that you have already

    Hi @pranksterguru,
    Keying in the username and password on our platform is a regulatory requirement.

    Hi @jaffar,
    As Kailash mentioned, we don't recommend automating login.
    it is mandatory by the exchange that a trader has to log in manually at least once a day.
