How do I activate the new App for API trading after April 1, 2026?

As per retail algo trading regulations, API trading must be migrated to a compliant setup before April 1, 2026. Existing API apps created under the previous setup will not be allowed to place orders.

To continue API trading without disruption, activate the new App by updating the required details like static IP address.

Why migration is mandatory

From April 1, 2026:

  • Existing API apps will be limited to Data-Only mode
  • Only fetching quotes, historical data, order details, positions, and holdings will be allowed
  • Order placement will be disabled

Steps to activate the new App

1. Open the FYERS API Dashboard

Go to: https://fyers.in/web/api-dashboard/user-apps

You can access this from FYERS Web or via redirection from the old API dashboard.

2. Select the default App

  • Click on the App named Algo trading app
  • This App is shown at the top by default

3. Activate the App

  • Update the static IP address
  • Enter the redirect URL
  • Select the required permissions
  • Click Activate

If you wish to enable a common static IP address for eligible family accounts, refer to this article.

4. After activation

  • You will receive a new App ID and Secret
  • The new App ID type will end with 200
  • Use these new credentials for API trading
  • To login, follow the authentication steps mentioned in this document.

5. App status details

  • Not connected: No active session (access token not generated or expired)
  • Connected: Active session with a valid access token
  • Created: Date when the App was first activated
  • Updated: Date when App details were last modified
Important: If the new App is not activated before April 1, 2026, order placement through API will not be allowed.
Tip: Ensure your static IP is validated and correctly configured before activation to avoid interruptions in API trading.
