      Are there any APIs to get the contract notes for the day. I know I can parse the PDF of the contract we get but i was hoping if we can get this data in structured format from somewhere.

      Any advice from algo traders on this?

        There is no option to get contract note via API.

          @James-Bond Thanks for the prompt response. Appreciate it.
          Is there any other way of getting this information programmatically?

          I am thinking of following two ways:

          1: Check with angel team/ exchange teams if we can get the contract notes in some format (ex: Excel sheet) instead of PDF,

          2: Use some open source libraries which will parse the PDF and extract some tabular data. But I find this soln. unreliable as the format in PDF may change and current pdf parsers are not that accurate.

          Any advice you would like to provide?

            Why not you use trade book or order book API methods for the same purpose ? It's easier to handle than fetching and parsing any files.
