I'm using Python 2.7.12 with kiteconnect 3.4

I get the error traceback below when calling order_place:

File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\kiteconnect\__init__.py", line 278, in order_place
return self._post("orders.place", params)["order_id"]
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\kiteconnect\__init__.py", line 459, in _post
return self._request(route, "POST", params)
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\kiteconnect\__init__.py", line 542, in _request
raise(exp(data["message"], code=r.status_code))
GeneralException: Route not found


I am able to fetch margins and get quotes for scrips.

    Hi @ferdinand.sousa,

    Your url is wrong, all varieties are specified in lowercase, So example url is something like this https://api.kite.trade/orders/bo
