invalid order id returned when cancelling

[phillwilk]

When attempting to cancel a live order on the book the

auth_client.cancel_order(orderid)

returns the following message

{'message': 'Invalid order id'}

this issue also seems to affect the

auth_client.get_order(orderid)

what kind of order ID are you supplying? where are you getting the order ID that you are sending and is it sent as a string as required?

[phillwilk]

The order ordered is stored following successful placing of an order, this is the return from the initial placement of the order. The orderid is declared as str() on assignment and before use in cancel_order or get_order.

maybe include a snippet of the code you are working with. It's hard to guess what is happening with this. I have a feeling something is effecting the formatting of the orderID. Show how you are pulling it from the order response and maybe we can figure it out

Working fine here:

>>> r = c.place_limit_order('BTC-USD', 'buy', '10.00', '100.0')
>>> r
{'id': '3771c79e-9d97-48e4-98dd-1d189cac5640', 'price': '10.00', 'size': '100.0', 'product_id': 'BTC-USD', 'side': 'buy', 'stp': 'cn', 'type': 'limit', 'time_in_force': 'GTC', 'post_only': False, 'created_at': '2020-11-22T09:14:02.864514Z', 'fill_fees': '0', 'filled_size': '0', 'executed_value': '0', 'status': 'pending', 'settled': False}
>>> 
>>> c.cancel_order(r['id'])
'3771c79e-9d97-48e4-98dd-1d189cac5640'

Closing for now. Feel free to reopen with a code snippet.
