sachet_singh
sachet_singh in Java client
I am running standalone command line program. basically, your sample code, with my keys. It does not connect. Can you pls help.

KiteConnect kiteconnect = new KiteConnect("");
kiteconnect.setUserId("");
String url = kiteconnect.getLoginUrl();
kiteconnect.registerHook(new SessionExpiryHook() {
@Override
public void sessionExpired() {
System.out.println("session expired");
}
});

// THIS LINE JUST FAILS
UserModel userModel = kiteconnect.requestAccessToken("request_token", "");

e.getMessage returns null

    Hi @sachet_singh,
    Request token you get is valid for only one time and the lifetime of a request token is a couple of minutes.
    The access token is valid for one day. Once you get access token store it and re-use it until your session is expired. Don't call
    requestAccessToken
    every time you run app.
