Trade App on Kite

Prem
Hello Sir,

It is necessary to create an App by using following URl "https://developers.kite.trade/create"

Because, if I want to create simple terminal Utility to execute orders as per my Strategies. So, I don't think that there is any requirement for "Postback URL" or "Redirect URL"

But in App Creation Window "Redirect URL" is must to include. How can I create an App without it because there is no User Interface in my utility. It just run in "Terminal"

I don't need "Redirect URL"

Can I proceed without "Redirect URL"

    @Prem As per exchange regulation its must for user to manually login. So once you get request_token manually you can use api from commandline tools.

    @Prem The login flow requires a redirect url. However, as stated in the documentation, it doesn't have to be a valid website, if you are using it privately. It can be anything. eg: http://127.0.0.1 or https://kite.trade or even https://google.com

    Just copy the request token from the URL after the redirect happens.

    Hi Vivek,

    How can I login manually? It will be Kite login or something other?
  • Vivek
    @Prem Its a kite login only. Please refer documentation - https://kite.trade/docs/connect/v1/#login-flow

    You initialise KiteConnect and call getLoginUrl() method. Open webview or browser with that url and enter credentials. After successful login, you will be redirected to pre-registered redirect url with request token. Use the same and request for access token. Use that access token for all api calls.

    Hi Vivek,

    It shows I can do my login via "App"

    So, my question is after creating an app on "kite.trade" what we get?
  • Kailash
    @Prem these are on the Kite documentation. Once you create an app, you get an api_key and an api_secret.
