    • Instrument Master API extremely slow/hanging (requests.get blocks while downloading)

      Hello SmartAPI Team,
      Since today (14 Jan 2026), we are facing a serious issue with the Instrument Master download endpoint.

      Issue

      The Instrument Master file download is hanging / stalling and not completing (download stream gets stuck). This is blocking all applications which depend on master file loading — including collector pipelines and realtime websocket token bootstrapping.

      Observations

      Login/authentication is successful.

      Issue happens specifically during the instrument master download step.

      Download does not complete and keeps waiting indefinitely (stuck mid-stream).

      This was working normally on previous days; issue started today.

      Impact

      This is a production blocker because without instrument master:

      option token mapping cannot be done,

      expiry/token bootstrapping cannot be completed,

      realtime subscriptions cannot start.

      Request

      Kindly confirm:

      Is there any outage / latency issue in the Instrument Master endpoint today?

      Any changes in master URL / backend caching / format?

      ETA for resolution or alternate stable endpoint for master download.

      Please treat this as high priority since it impacts all applications dependent on SmartAPI master file.

      Thanks.
