Beta Launch of Place Order API V3​

Effective Immediately

We're thrilled to announce the beta release of Place Order API V3. This version introduces several key improvements designed to streamline your trading experience and enhance functionality.

What's New?​

Enhanced Order Placement with Auto-Slicing

  • Place Order API V3 now includes an auto-slicing capability, which automatically breaks down large orders into smaller sizes that comply with exchange regulations. You can control this feature by setting the slice flag in your order request, making it easy to enable or disable auto-slicing as needed.

Latency Tracking for Better Insights

  • API V3 also provides latency information in the metadata object, allowing you to track the time taken by Upstox to process your requests. This feature supports greater transparency and helps you make informed, time-sensitive trading decisions.

For more details on implementation and usage, please refer to the Place Order API V3 Documentation.

What Does Beta Mean?​

This beta release signifies that API V3 is still in the testing phase and may undergo refinements based on user feedback. Although we have conducted extensive internal testing to ensure reliability, we welcome you to try API V3 and share your experiences to help us improve.
