Authenticated client returns invalid API key

[sandybradley]

Following the online guide, I was able to use the publicClient effectively but the authenticated client returns:

HTTP 400 Error: invalid api key

I used the following code excerpt:

const EMX = require('emx');
const authedClient = new EMX.AuthenticatedClient( '---***-', '***************************', 'https://api.testnet.emx.com', );

let buyParams = {
contractCode: 'BTCM19',
side: 'buy',
size: '0.0001', // BTC
price: '7500', // USD
type: 'limit',
};
authedClient.placeOrder(buyParams, callback);

function callback(error, response, data){
if (error) {
// handle the error
console.log(error.message);
} else {
// work with data
console.log(data);
}
}

Key and secret are correctly copied from EMX account. Does it have something to do with testnet for API requests?

Similarly for the authenticated websocket, I got the following error:

not authenticated for trading channel (upstream)

Code:
const EMX = require('emx');
const websocket = new EMX.WebSocketClient(
'', '','https://api.testnet.emx.com', );
websocket.on('open', () => {
websocket.subscribe({ contractCodes: [], channels: [ "trading"] });
});

let buyParams = {
contractCode: 'BTCM19',
side: 'buy',
size: '0.0001', // BTC
price: '7500', // USD
type: 'limit',
};
websocket.placeOrder(buyParams);

Appreciate any help. Thanks.

EMX API keys are environment specific. Are you using a testnet API key? When you’re looking at your API key settings, does the browser address bar say testnet.emx.com? Thanks for trying the API!

Hi. Thank you for your response. I am trying to trade on my real account. API settings are from there. Accordingly, I adjusted the apiURI. Now I am getting a different error:

HTTP 400 Error: invalid signature

Hi, do you still have that issue? If so, can you please post your updated script (without private info of course)?

Hi. Thanks for your response. Yes I do still have this issue. I have been unable to sumbit an API order.

Here's the code:

const EMX = require('emx');
const publicClient = new EMX.PublicClient();

const authedClient = new EMX.AuthenticatedClient(
'key', 'secret', 'https://api.emx.com',
);

function callback(error, response, data){
if (error) {
// handle the error
console.log(error.message);
} else {
// work with data
console.log(data);
}
}
// set buy order
let buyParams = {
contractCode: 'BTCM19',
side: 'buy',
size: '0.0001', // BTC
price: '7500.00', // USD
type: 'limit',
};
authedClient.placeOrder(buyParams, callback);

Here's the error:

HTTP 400 Error: invalid signature

Key and secret were copied directly from the mainnet trading account on EMX. I tried with two different keys. Same response. Also the python client gives the same result. Any advice?
