What is the correct endpoint to connect to the API?
26 May 2023, 11:15

The official documentation informs that the endpoints used to connect to the API are demo1.p.ctrader.com:5034 and demo1.p.ctrader.com:5034. I can't connect on those endpoints, but changing the port to 5035 I'm able to connect. Then there is a second problem with the certificates. I had to disable the verification otherwise I would get this error tls: failed to verify certificate: x509: certificate is valid for *.spotware.com, spotware.com, not demo2.p.ctrader.com.

So I just want to confirm two things:

  • Is the documentation wrong saying to use port 5034 instead of 5035?
  • Is demo1.p.ctrader.com:5035 the correct endpoint? I've seen libraries using demo.ctrader.com:5035
  • Is Spotware aware of the SSL problem?

The documentation was updated, everything is working as expected now.
