Alpaca broker fails to authorize and/or connect... #331
Comments
|
Thank you for bringing this to my attention! The docs need to be updated.
Instead of:
ALPACA_CONFIG = {
# Put your own Alpaca key here:
"API_KEY": "YOUR_ALPACA_API_KEY",
# Put your own Alpaca secret here:
"API_SECRET": "YOUR_ALPACA_SECRET",
# If you want to go live, you must change this. It is currently
set for paper trading
"ENDPOINT": "https://paper-api.alpaca.markets"}
It should be:
ALPACA_CONFIG = {
# Put your own Alpaca key here:
"API_KEY": "YOUR_ALPACA_API_KEY",
# Put your own Alpaca secret here:
"API_SECRET": "YOUR_ALPACA_SECRET",
# If you want to go live, you must change this. It is currently
set for paper trading
"PAPER": True}
Let me know if this works for you.

alpaca.common.exceptions.APIError: {"code":40110000,"message":"request is
not authorized"}
But I have zero issues accessing my paper trading account with same API
and secret key using alpaca_trade_api python library like so:
api = tradeapi.rest.REST(APCA_API_KEY_ID, APCA_API_SECRET_KEY,
APCA_API_BASE_URL, api_version='v2')
I do not know why lumibot method fails. Please help!
Thanks,
