Getting An Oauth Request Token From Etrade In Python

I'm trying to get an oauth request token from the etrade api (sandbox) in Python with this thing: import requests from oauthlib.oauth1 import Client consumer_key = 'foo' # act

Solution 1:

A helpful person at etrade clarified for the doc-challenged that all oauth api requests (whether you are working in the sandbox or not) need to be sent to the main api url: 'https://etws.etrade.com/oauth/{api}'.

It is only after authenticating a session that the sandbox urls should be used: 'https://etwssandbox.etrade.com/{non-oauth-module}/sandbox/rest/{api}'.

In case others are having problems authenticating a session with etrade in python3, this works in the sandbox at least:

from rauth import OAuth1Service
import webbrowser 

defgetSession():
    # Create a session# Use actual consumer secret and key in place of 'foo' and 'bar'
    service = OAuth1Service(
              name = 'etrade',
              consumer_key = 'foo',
              consumer_secret = 'bar',
              request_token_url = 'https://etws.etrade.com/oauth/request_token',
              access_token_url = 'https://etws.etrade.com/oauth/access_token',
              authorize_url = 'https://us.etrade.com/e/t/etws/authorize?key={}&token={}',
              base_url = 'https://etws.etrade.com')

    # Get request token and secret    
    oauth_token, oauth_token_secret = service.get_request_token(params = 
                                  {'oauth_callback': 'oob', 
                                   'format': 'json'})

    auth_url = service.authorize_url.format(consumer_key, oauth_token)

    # Get verifier (direct input in console, still working on callback)
    webbrowser.open(auth_url)
    verifier = input('Please input the verifier: ')

    return service.get_auth_session(oauth_token, oauth_token_secret, params = {'oauth_verifier': verifier})

# Create a session
session = getSession()

# After authenticating a session, use sandbox urls
url = 'https://etwssandbox.etrade.com/accounts/sandbox/rest/accountlist.json'

resp = session.get(url, params = {'format': 'json'})

print(resp)

Thanks @ethann - this actually still works as of 6/17/2020 with changed urls.

from rauth import OAuth1Service
import webbrowser 

service = OAuth1Service(
          name = 'etrade',
          consumer_key = 'foo',
          consumer_secret = 'bar',
          request_token_url = 'https://apisb.etrade.com/oauth/request_token',
          access_token_url = 'https://apisb.etrade.com/oauth/access_token',
          authorize_url = 'https://us.etrade.com/e/t/etws/authorize?key={}&token={}',
          base_url = 'https://apisb.etrade.com')

oauth_token, oauth_token_secret = service.get_request_token(params =
       {'oauth_callback': 'oob', 
        'format': 'json'})

auth_url = service.authorize_url.format('foo again', oauth_token)
webbrowser.open(auth_url)
verifier = input('Please input the verifier: ')
session = service.get_auth_session(oauth_token, oauth_token_secret, params = {'oauth_verifier': verifier})

url = 'https://apisb.etrade.com/v1/accounts/list'
resp = session.get(url, params = {'format': 'json'})

print(resp.text)
