500 :: Internal Server Error

[oleg-d]

I keep getting "500 :: Internal Server Error"

I am testing with a simple SPX 0DTE option. I have been away from this code for a while so last time it worked was around a month ago. So now I dont know if its my code or something server side.

Found strike 5175C, delta 0.495, maturity 20250404
ERROR:root:Error processing order: IbkrClient: response error Result(data=None, request={'url': 'https://api.ibkr.com/v1/api/iserver/secdef/info', 'params': {'conid': '773846944', 'sectype': 'OPT', 'month': '20250404', 'exchange': 'SMART', 'strike': '5170.0', 'right': 'C'}}) :: 500 :: Internal Server Error :: {"error":"No Contracts retrieved "}

Hi @oleg-d - the 5xx errors are server errors, which usually means they lay on IBKR side. I'd encourage you to talk to their support about this

Hi, not sure about this but worth a try: Shouldn't month have this form, e.g. "APR25"? That's what I use. It does not state this explicitly in this endpoint's docs, but it is mentioned elsewhere: https://www.interactivebrokers.com/campus/ibkr-api-page/webapi-ref/#tag/Trading-Contracts/paths/~1iserver~1secdef~1strikes/get

Also the conid should be that of an underlying, possibly 416904 for SPX in your case?

@oleg-d were you able to resolve this?

No I havent been back to the options code. The futures trading work in my app so its something wrong in my options code.

i have been back to my options code and indeed the issue was with the code.
