Can someone explain the way to get tradebook data of the client ?
I am building an app for easy portfolio management.

    Are you referring to today's tradebook or historical tradebook?

    @sujith: All my trades (only Equity segment) since the time I opened my account.

    No, currently you can only get today's orderbook/tradebook. Historical tradebook is not available as of now in API.

    Historical tradebook is only available in console. You have to download from there.

    Yes, for the first attempt you will have to use console -> tradebook --> download it as csv and dump it to your DB. Then you can keep updating daily tradebook(preferably by EOD from API tradebook response.

    Are you suggesting this ?
    1. I get my customers to 'Login with Kite'
    2. How do I access Console GUI on my customer's behalf
    3. Manually open their console -> tradebook --> download all multi-year CSVs and dump it to my DB
    4. Every EOD make API tradebook request
    Have I understood it, right?

    Maybe you can redirect clients to console and let them manually download the historical tradebook and upload on your portal.
    No, currently you can only get today's orderbook/tradebook. Historical tradebook is not available as of now in API.
    As, said above we don't have API end-point for this, as of now. So, you will need to have work-around.

    What would motivate you to build this API ? ;)
    I am certain it would give great value to developers and would need very little development efforts to build it.

    It is a part of backoffice. It has nothing to do with trading application.
    We may add this when backoffice APIs are integrated to Kite Connect.
