Hello, I try this:

→ On wss://live.tradovateapi.com/v1/websocket

```
        string endpoint = "auth/accessTokenRequest";
        var id = Interlocked.Increment(ref RequestCounter);
        string queryParams = "";

        string body = "{\"name\":\"" + name_ + "\",";
        body = body + "\"password\":\"" + password_ + "\",";
        body = body + "\"appId\":\"" + appId_ + "\",";
        body = body + "\"appVersion\":\"" + appVersion_ + "\",";
        body = body + "\"deviceId\":\"" + deviceId_ + "\",";
        body = body + "\"cid\":\"" + cid_ + "\",";
        body = body + "\"sec\":\"" + sec + "\"}";

        var frame = $"{endpoint}\n{id}\n{queryParams}\n{body}";

        websocket.Send(frame);

```

Ok, I have the answer now from FAQ in Github.

**AUTHENTICATION is only in REST API’s in auth/accessTokenRequest**

Hi @son_hoang ! Thanks for the response! And yes, I use C# and yes, I use a websocket in C#.

The problem is that **is impossible** to obtain in Websocket (See FAQ Reply), only in REST API. ([https://demo.tradovateapi.com/v1/auth/accessTokenRequest](https://demo.tradovateapi.com/v1/auth/accessTokenRequest) || [https://live.tradovateapi.com/v1/](https://live.tradovateapi.com/v1/)). I’m able now to obtain via REST API, when I finish I will upload the code for the Community.

And I don’t know if this Community is or not Horrible but I want to contribute to be better. Good luck!
