Aliceblue

This guide walks you through connecting an Aliceblue trading account so AutoTrader Web can place orders for you. The setup has three parts: enable TOTP, create an app, and add the account.

Before you start

You need three things from Aliceblue:

• The secret TOTP key (from enabling TOTP).
• Your Aliceblue login id and password.
• An App Key and App Secret Key (created on the Aliceblue developer portal).

Step 1: Enable TOTP and copy the key

You need the secret TOTP key that Aliceblue gives you when you enable TOTP.

If you have already enabled TOTP, you may already have this key, most likely saved in an app like Google Authenticator. If you do not have it, you can disable TOTP and enable it again to see the key.

To enable TOTP:

1. Install the Google Authenticator app on your phone.
2. Open the login screen and enter your password. The TOTP setup option appears here.
3. You will see a QR code. Scan it in the Google Authenticator app on your phone. The app will then show a TOTP that you need for login.
4. Click the Can’t scan? Copy the key link. You will not see a popup, but the key is copied to your clipboard.
5. Open Notepad and paste the key. You will need this key later.
6. Enter the TOTP shown in the authenticator app and activate the TOTP on the Aliceblue website.

Note: Only proceed to the next step once you have enabled TOTP.

Step 2: Create an app for App Key and App Secret Key

1. Register as an Individual trader. Visit https://a3.aliceblueonline.com/.

2. Click the Create App button and fill in the form:

   Field	Value
   App Name	My trading app
   Description	My trading app
   Redirect URL	https://webx.stocksdeveloper.in/auth/aliceblueCopy
   Business Type	Trading
   Contact Name	<Your name>
   Contact Email	<Your email>
   Mobile Number	<Your phone number>

3. Once the app is created, you will see the App Key and App Secret Key.

Step 3: Add the account in AutoTrader Web

Go back to the Create account page on AutoTrader Web and fill in these fields:

1. Select broker as Aliceblue.
2. Select platform as ALICE_API_V2_IPV6.
3. Enter your Aliceblue login id.
4. Enter your Aliceblue password.
5. Enter the Totp key.
6. Enter the App Key.
7. Enter the App Secret Key.

Then:

8. Click the Validate button.
9. On successful validation, click Save to add the account.

That’s it. You have successfully added your Aliceblue account. Do not forget to read these known limitations.
