Or can we access live price date through kite connect to let algorithms work (and trade accordingly) even if we don't login next day?

Long story short, Is login into kite platform compulsory every day?

    @botany02 Is it anyhow possible to automate task internally on server-to-server without login into kite?

    Like, I'm trying to get alerts of my portfolio stocks whenever its price creased the limits. And I don't open my Kite Trade account every day. Any solution for this?

    I'm trying to implement in .Net.
    Let you know, once done.

    Hi @Sowmay,
    It is mandatory by the exchange that a trader has to log in manually at least once a day. You need to log in every day to use Kite Connect.

    @sujith When does Zerodha flushed out access token? Any exact time?
  • sujith
    Hi @Sowmay,
    It is a manual process, it may happen in between 7:30 AM to 8:30 AM every day.

    Is there any auto logout time in kitexl? Cause sometimes it remains logged in for hours and other times it logs out in a few minutes

    Hi @derickgeorge89,
    Once an access token is generated it is valid for the whole day. If you log into PI, NEST or trade.zerodha.com then new access token is generated and current access token is deleted. I would suggest using Kite for monitoring purpose and not any other trading platforms.

    If you logout from any other session like Pi/Kite/NestTrader, then you will be automatically logged-out from KiteXL also.

    You can automate using selenium+phantomjs and setup a cron

    @arnavsaxena,
    We don't recommend automating login as it is mandatory by the exchange that an individual has to log in manually every day.
