Error 401 on Webscocket connection (noob...)

[Woutvan]

Hi,

I'm a beginner and just installed your package. My goal is to output each action that is happening on my Bybit account. So when a trade is placed and closed I want to see it in my code. Not sure if this is possible or not.

Now my first test is failing already. I'm trying this:

const {WebsocketClient} = require('@pxtrn/bybit-api');

const API_KEY = 'JIsxxxxxxxqfck';
const PRIVATE_KEY = '1DZ7DiBxxxxxxxxxviDqvZ0sdnLnsr';

const ws = new WebsocketClient({key: API_KEY, secret: PRIVATE_KEY});

My API keys are new and are having full access (so not a read only key). The output i get is:

[Arguments] {
  '0': 'Starting authenticated websocket client.',
  '1': { category: 'bybit-ws' }
}
[Arguments] {
  '0': 'Websocket error',
  '1': {
    category: 'bybit-ws',
    err: Error: Unexpected server response: 401

  }
}

Anyone that can give me a hint? Thanks !

401 means your not authenticated. Check those two:

1. Did you create the API key and secret for the testnet (https://testnet.bybit.com/) or the livenet (https://bybit.com/)? If you created them for the livenet, add livenet: true to the options: const ws = new WebsocketClient({key: API_KEY, secret: PRIVATE_KEY, livenet: true});

2. Is your IP from which you try to access the websocket whitelisted for the key you use?
