We haven't encountered any issues on our end. Could you let us know how frequently you experience this error? Additionally, please enable debug logs in PyKiteConnect and share the complete stack trace with us. Be sure to remove any app and client-specific tokens before sharing.
I recommend you to test on a different network (for example, a mobile hotspot or another Wi-Fi) to see if the issue is specific to your current ISP.
every 10-15 requests one will fail, it is happening in all request. For example orders which is executed have returned timeout error. I have tried different connections but same issue. This doesn't happen too often but it happens and can cause serious damage to app logic. I had run ping request to google simultaneously with api.kite.trade and i can see .3% failure for api.kite.trade and 0 failure for google.com. So issue is not about network.

I had searched my error logs(usually i store in database) in my log there is not even single error outside trading hours This only happens only during trading hours. I will try connection pooling option not sure this will help. This issue only appeared recently( couple of weeks max)
2025-10-03 15:12:18.278686, 2025-10-03 15:02:31.115118 are few of them. I had just noticed that no error in my database in this week and no ping drops either
