Broker Setup Guides / Groww

Groww

Add and validate your Groww account in QUANT LEVELS.

Simplest setup of any broker here: just an API Key and a TOTP Secret - no password or PIN needed at all, and the daily token has no manual-approval step.

Step 1 - Generate an API Key

  1. Log in at Groww's Trade API Keys page and click Generate API Key.
  2. Click Generate TOTP Token (this is Groww's TOTP-based auth type, as opposed to the "Approval" type which needs manual daily re-authorization).
  3. Paste this as the Redirect URL:
    https://quantlevelsdevloper.in/auth/groww
  4. Enter the required details and generate. You'll get two values - map them into our form like this:
    Groww calls itPut it in our form as
    TOTP KeyTOTP Secret Key
    TOTP TokenAPI Key
    Groww does not show these values again after you leave the page, so save them immediately.

Step 2 - Add the account

  1. Go to Accounts → Add New Account.
  2. Select Broker as Groww.
  3. Give it any Client Label (Groww's own API doesn't use a client ID - this is just for your own reference in our system).
  4. Put the API Key into the API Key field and the TOTP secret into TOTP Secret Key. The Password field is hidden - Groww doesn't need it.
  5. Save.
IPv6, not IPv4: Groww's own trading-platform naming for this connection type is "GROWW_API_IPV6" - if the key generation page asks for a Static IP, it expects an IPv6 address, same as Alice Blue. A regular IPv4 proxy likely won't work here.

Common Issues

"Approval" key type was chosen by mistake

Groww's "Approval" key type needs a manual daily re-authorization step Groww's dashboard, unlike TOTP keys. If your key stops working daily, regenerate it and make sure TOTP is selected as the auth type this time.

Fund/position/holding numbers look off

Groww's response format for these is still being finalized on our side - if numbers look wrong, let us know which account and we'll check it against a live response.

Copy trading on Groww

Groww has no plain webhook for master detection - it streams order updates over a specialized real-time protocol (NATS with Protobuf-encoded messages) that we connect to directly per master account, using the same connection method as Groww's own official trading tools.
