Description

Hi guys

An exception is returned at times by OandA due to an invalid request sent to their server from MultiCharts. The following error is logged in MultiCharts Portfolio Trader:

"10/9/2017 3:30:08 PM" "Warning" "OANDA" "" "-" "MakeRequest (POST) WebException: ; Message= "Insufficient authorization to perform request."; requestString= "https://api-fxpractice.oanda.com/v3/accounts/101-001-6358291-002/orders""

The problem is that the request passed is trying to access a version 3 of the REST API, OandA currently only supports version 1 and 2.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Kind regards
Ettienne Hugo

Hello Ettienne,

v3 is v20 OANDA connection. Please make sure you have selected the proper Trading Interface that corresponds with your account (v1 or v20) in the data feed settings: https://www.multicharts.com/trading-software/index.php/OANDA Also make sure the proper account type is selected in Oanda broker profile: https://www.multicharts.com/trading-software/index.php/OANDA_Broker_Profile If you still have the issue after the platform is properly configured - please send us the logs for analysis and specify the time when the error occurred: go to Help tab->Feedback (or Windows Start menu->All programs->MultiCharts64->Feedback). Select two options: - Attach log files to help us understand what happened - Upload collected data to Help Desk. Uncheck the other options as we do not need them right now.

Hi Alex

Thank you for the feedback. I looked through the OandA API documentation and did find the sections where they use a v3 to access the REST-V20 services.

Kind regards Ettienne Hugo
