API for Sensex, Nifty, Midcap and SmallCap quote

ajay.b · February 2016

Is there any API for Sensex, Nifty, Midcap and SmallCap quote ?

Kailash · February 2016

@ajay.b - The instruments API in the document should work.

ajay.b · February 2016

As instruments API returns large amount of data, do we have any other api which can be called for real time quotes of indices.

The WebSocket API streams live updates. We're doing final touches to it before it's documented and released.

@Kailash

With instruments api, what will be the symbol for getting quote for indices like sensex, nifty, small and midcap. Can you please help.

Kailash · February 2016

Please try their alphanumeric names, like NIFTY50.

Tried NIFTY50, it does not work. Getting below error,

{"status": "error", "message": "Exception fetching quote", "error_type": "DataException"}

@ajay.b @pranksterguru Yeah the feature is live now. You can fetch quotes for index and you can replace space with + symbol in index name. Here is an example

NIFTY -https://api.kite.trade/instruments/NSE/NIFTY+50?api_key=xxx&access_token=yyy
SENSEX - https://api.kite.trade/instruments/BSE/SENSEX?api_key=xxx&access_token=yyy
