def subscribe_feed_data(data):
    print(data)


# Modify the websocket_connection function to accept the handler as an argument
thread = thefirstock.websocket_connection(
    handler,
    listOfTradingSymbol,
    socket_connection=1,
    activate_sub_feed=True,
    callback_sub_feed=subscribe_feed_data
)

    • Get Multi Quotes LTP
    • Get Multi Quotes
    • Day Interval Time Price Series
    • Time Price Series
    • Security Info
    • Get Quotes
  • The method for accessing the websocket has been entirely revamped. Detailed information will be available in an upcoming blog post. Additionally, sample code illustrating the new method can be found in the examples section.
  • In current version for the login api the password needs to be hashed using SHA256 and then passed.
  • Recent modifications to various APIs now require the use of 'trading symbol' in place of the previously used 'token' parameter. This change affects the following APIs:
    • Get Multi Quotes LTP
    • Get Multi Quotes
    • Day Interval Time Price Series
    • Time Price Series
    • Security Info
    • Get Quotes
