Hi Zerodha Team, I have created a separate Kite Connect app named NSAS Historical Research. The Developer Console shows the app as Active with Kite Connect + Historical Chart data. I am using: Kite Connect Python client (pykiteconnect) version 5.2.1 Authentication and other API calls are working correctly: - A fresh access token is generated successfully. - kite.profile() works successfully. - kite.instruments("NSE") works successfully. - COFORGE on NSE resolves successfully with instrument token 2955009. I also generated a completely fresh access token after confirming that Historical Chart Data is active. However, the following historical-data request: kite.historical_data(instrument_token=2955009, from_date=..., to_date=..., interval="15minute", continuous=False, oi=False) consistently returns: kiteconnect.exceptions.PermissionException: Insufficient permission for that call. Could you please check whether the Historical Data API permission/entitlement is correctly provisioned for my app/API key? I can provide the API key privately if required. Thanks, B. K. Mishra
To access live market data, historical candle data, or the WebSocket API, you need to subscribe to the paid Kite Connect plan.
If you are using a Kite Connect Personal (free) app, please note that it does not provide access to market data, historical data, or the WebSocket API. This limitation is likely the reason you are encountering the HTTP 403 (Insufficient permission for that call) error.
To verify this, please check the type of your app in the Developer Console and ensure that you are using the correct api_key associated with your paid Kite Connect application.
