@admin
Does that means instead of Password we need to use PIN for login through smartaapi

your doc says

Login Request
{
"clientcode":"Your_client_code",
"password":"Your_pin"
"totp":"enter_the_code_displayed_on_your_authenticator_app"
}

We use PIN instead of Password?

Hi @admin, currently I am using below code to do login through the python code.
connect1.generateSession(clientCode=client_id, password=password, totp=totp)
Do I need to change anything here? Please suggest.

Thanks,
Ravi

@admin said in Important Announcement: Change in Angel One Login Policy:

he new login process will be MPIN based. We will introduce a new login endpoint giving our users sufficient time to migrate to the new login endpoint.

I'm already using TOPT based log in, but it is not allowing me to login for the last one week. It is not accepting the login with Client ID and Password as well, it says invalid user ID and Password. Can you resolve this issue?

admin

Yes @pari , it will work

@admin So, instead of passing our password, we just pass our MPIN? With the Python SDK will this work?
"obj.generateSession('client_code', 'mpin, 'totp')"

HI Everyone, (@Ashok @mihirshah2500 @rajanprabu @Saidareddy )

We are excited to announce the launch of our new login service that now allows users to login with their PIN in addition to their password.

The new login service solves the problem of newly onboarded Angel One clients who were unable to access SmartAPI due to non-availability of the password, and also solves the problem of users who have forgotten their passwords and were unable to reset them.

Starting today, users will be able to use either their PIN or password to authenticate with Angel One SmartAPI with the existing loginByPassword API endpoint.

The request structure of the current loginbyPassword API endpoint is as below:

{
"clientcode":"Your_client_code",
"password":"Your_Password" OR "Your_PIN"
"totp":"enter_the_code_displayed_on_your_authenticator_app"
}

Likewise, to set up the one time TOTP on https://smartapi.angelbroking.com/enable-totp to retrieve the QR code, users can either login with their password OR PIN . To learn more about TOTP and how to setup TOTP, please visit - https://smartapi.angelbroking.com/topic/2377/guide-to-secure-your-smartapi-account-with-two-factor-authentication?_=1670353255986

By the end of this month (i.e. December 31, 2022), we will be discontinuing the use of passwords for login, so we encourage all users to set up their PIN as soon as possible.

Thank you for your continued support, and we hope you enjoy trading with SmartAPI.

Please send PIN via email as well. only mobile will cause lots of inconveniences.

Hi @mihirshah2500 , We are working on the same with a sense of urgency. Unfortunately at this moment we cannot share the expected release date.

When should we expect this new version of SmartAPIs to be available? I want to add my family member's account to this, but he just opened the account 2 days back. Want to add the account to SmartAPI asap.

Hi @Ashok , the new login process will be MPIN based. We will introduce a new login endpoint giving our users sufficient time to migrate to the new login endpoint.

@admin What will be the new login process after the revamp. reason for asking is that, we donot want another surprise like websocket migration :(
