Creating user data stream

[gitkornel]

Hello, I've been wondering how can you create a user data listen stream?

There is no example and quite didn't understand the code.

What I came up to (but doesn't compile neither works):

SomeFunctor ws_stream_read{};
std::string cust_stream = "fapi/v1/listenKey";
std::thread t1(&FuturesClientUSDT::stream_userStream<SomeFunctor>, cust_stream, std::ref(ws_stream_read.msg_buffer), std::ref(ws_stream_read));
t1.join();

Any ideas?

Best Regards.

You are attempting to send a custom stream name into a userStream method that is not a custom stream. Also, in general, if you do want to start a user stream by using the custom stream method, the name should be in this case the listen key.

I've created the following example to illustrate how to start a user stream - https://github.com/adanikel/BinanceExtensionCPP/blob/master/examples/futures_user_stream.cpp

tested and works for me (futures account)

let me know if that helps @gitkornel

Hello, it doesn't do anything, doesn't print.

I copied the exact code from the example.

If you copied the exact snippet it should work.

The user stream only pushes updates when there are updates to push, such as new orders.

Try cancelling / opening a new FUTURES USDT order and see if an update goes through. Also make sure the key is supporting futures trading.
