Access rate

Surya 1

Hi @admin and Team,

What is the recommended access rate per minute for api calls ? like rmslimit, positions, ltp etc

Im getting this error while testing.. most probably I exceeded the limit..
b'Access denied because of exceeding access rate'

Hence interested in knowing it. Also please enable the search function. Apologies if I repeated the question that is already asked.

Hey @macstar440

I just reduced my access limit to what described in the table. I have no issues now..

punit

@admin , I have faced same error while calling generateSession. Its not like I am doing multiple calls, but only one call at 9.00AM IST.

May be overall system is hitting the rate limits by Infra side ?

admin

@dheepi Thank you for sharing the logs with us.

@rajanprabu @daytrader

Can you please confirm the time at which you are trying to generate the session?
Are you trying to generate the session for multiple accounts at same time?

If possible, please share the logs with us on api@angelbroking.com

This is what I do.. I generate session and then immediately generate token and dump in on to json file. This is I normally do at morning 9:10 or so.. Then I reuse the tokens at 9:15 for my session.

Maybe generating session and generating tokens immediately after hitting the rate limit ?

Having said that this did not occur last days.

from smartapi import SmartConnect
import json


with open(Angel_Broking/ab_user.json') as f:
    data = json.load(f)

api_key = data['api_key']
client_code = data['client_code']
password = data['kennwort']

obj = SmartConnect(api_key=api_key)

data = obj.generateSession(client_code, password)
tokens = obj.generateToken(data["data"]["refreshToken"])   

with open('Angel_Broking/ab_tokens.json', 'w') as outfile:
    json.dump(tokens['data'], outfile)

@rajanprabu said in Access rate:

data = obj.generateSession(client_code, password)
tokens = obj.generateToken(data["data"]["refreshToken"])

HI @rajanprabu , both these calls need not be done together. If so it will show access rate error.

Generate token needs to be called after 150 minutes, once the token is expired.
