Cannot Login

Hi, I am new to Kite.
My client wants me to help him setup the system and add some features in excel for Kite.

I have downloaded the sample excel and also the KiteXL Installer as mentioned in https://www.howutrade.in/docs/KiteXL/html/GettingStarted.htm

However, I am not able to Login.
I have created a login at https://developers.kite.trade/apps
And have created an app.
I have added the App Key and secret in Excel.
I am able to see the app name on Login Page too.

But I cannot enter the email in Login. I tried my name as entered in profile. But it is not working either.

What am i missing? Please help.

    Hi @dhara911,
    You have to open an account with zerodha to login. Please private message me your phone number, email and full name. We will have one of our executives help you to open an account.

    Hi Sujith,

    Thank you.
    Is there a sandbox account on which I can do some testing?
    My Client wants some features in excel.
    It will be safe in sandbox... will continue on actual account once all testing done.

    Hi @dhara911,
    Sandbox is currently not available. We are working on building sandbox.
    You will have to open an account to access API for now.

    Hi,

    I am posting in the format {header,value}:

    {"request_token","TheQuariedVaue"}
    {"checksum", CryptographicHash::Sha256(Api_Key+request_token+Api_Secret)}

    as Multipart http message

    to url

    "https://api.kite.trade/session/token".

    I am receiving following message from server:
    {\"status\": \"error\", \"message\": \"Missing api_key\", \"error_type\": \"InputException\"}.

    Kindly let me know what might be missing in my message.


    Thanks,

    when i tried to login using the api key, i was not able to. I got the following error:

    "error_type": "ForbiddenError",
    "message": "Invalid api_key",
    "status": "error"

    Hi @Santosh,
    You need to send api_key in the header.

    @vijayfreeb,
    After login, you will be asked to let the intraday App access your Zerodha account details, did you give permission?
