Hey! Thanks for flagging this issue. Could you provide a minimal example for this error?

[jborchma]

Also, it looks like you're using a different package?

Hey, This is interestingly enough was also happening with questrade_api as well. I was attempting to use both of them. I also ran this on a different system with a fresh install of python and got the same error message. Here is an example of my program: *********** from qtrade import Questrade qtrade = Questrade(access_code='pRzav*****X0') qtrade.get_access_token() *********** Currently I'm now getting a different error: ***********  File "/dowload_questrade_data/questrade/questrade_play.py", line 3, in <module> qtrade = Questrade(access_code='pRza*****0') File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/qtrade/questrade.py", line 38, in __init__ self.get_access_token() File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/qtrade/questrade.py", line 83, in get_access_token data.raise_for_status() File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/requests/models.py", line 941, in raise_for_status raise HTTPError(http_error_msg, response=self) requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 400 Client Error: Bad Request for url: https://login.questrade.com/oauth2/token?grant_type=refresh_token&refresh_token=pRza*****X0 *********** So essentially trade is just not initialising at all. Thanks for your help on this. I am very interested in working with your program. cr0n

So, I can't reproduce your error. For me, it works fine. Are you sure you're using the right token?

[jborchma]

Any update from your side? Everything is still working fine for me.

Ok, I am going to close this for now. Please update if you have something else coming up.
