Placing order using tokens

Bharath Raj M

Dear admin,

Once we generate a session, how do we place order using just tokens?

Right now I am doing this:

client_smartApi = SmartConnect(api_key = client_api_key)
login = client_smartApi.generateSession("Client_id","Client_password")
orderId=client_smartApi.placeOrder(orderparams)
print("OrderId :"+str(orderId))

#obtain the required tokens
access_token = client_smartApi.access_token
refreshToken = login['data']['refreshToken']
jwtToken = login['data']['jwtToken']

The order is successfully placed here.
As you can see, while placing the order I generateSession for the client using the client ID and the client password.

However, how do we generate a session initially and then use the tokens to place the orders at a later point in time?

I tried doing this -

client_smartApi = SmartConnect(api_key = clien_api_key)
client_smartApi.setAccessToken(access_token )
client_smartApi.setRefreshToken(refreshToken )
orderId=client_smartApi.placeOrder(orderparams)

This throws an error as follows:

..........\lib\site-packages\smartapi\smartConnect.py in placeOrder(self, orderparams)
    288                 del(params[k])
    289 
--> 290         orderResponse= self._postRequest("api.order.place", params)['data']['orderid']
    291 
    292         return orderResponse

TypeError: string indices must be integers

Could you please guide me with this?

Thank you
