Request Body

Parameter	Description	Mandatory/Optional	Default Value
apikey	Your OpenAlgo API key	Mandatory	-
strategy_id	Positive Strategy RMS id	Mandatory	-

Response Fields

Field	Type	Description
status	string	success or error
data	object	Strategy configuration, including its saved leg definitions
run	object or null	Current run, or null when no run is current

Leg Fields

data.legs is the saved configuration, and the two kinds do not share a shape. A batch leg is resolved against the strategy's underlying; a signal leg names its own instrument.

Field	Kind	Description
id	both	Leg id, unique within the strategy
segment	both	options, futures, or cash. A batch leg's segment must be one its universe_tab offers, and cash is offered on stocks_fno only: an index has no cash instrument and an MCX commodity has no spot. A signal leg takes cash or futures only
position	batch	B or S. A short cash leg is refused unless the product is MIS, because cash cannot be carried short
lots	batch	The configured count, multiplied by the contract's lot size on every segment. A cash row's lot size is 1, so the count reads as a share count
expiry	batch	Expiry rank; refused outright on a cash leg
option_type, strike_mode, atm_offset, strike	batch	Options legs only
symbol, exchange	signal	The exact instrument, checked against the master contract on every venue. The segment and the exchange must agree: cash cannot sit on a derivative venue
side	signal	long, short, or both. Which signals the leg accepts, not the side it is held
qty, qty_mode	signal	lots multiplies by the contract's lot size; units is the number outright. A derivative venue defaults to lots and a cash venue to units, and lots is refused on cash because there is no lot size to multiply by
sl_pts, target_pts, trail	both	Per-leg risk
risk_unit	both	points (the default) or percent, governing sl_pts, target_pts and trail together. A percentage is measured against the leg's own entry price, so 2 on a short filled at 2500 is a stop at 2550

Run Object Fields

Field	Type	Description
id	integer	Run id
mode	string	live or sandbox, fixed for the run
broker	string	Broker captured at start; sandbox for a sandbox run
started_at, stopped_at	string or null	ISO 8601 UTC timestamps
stop_reason	string or null	Terminal reason once finalised
stop_requested_at, stop_requested_reason	string or null	Durable pending-stop state
pnl_realized	number	Realised P&L after confirmed-flat finalisation
pnl_peak, pnl_trough	number	Highest and lowest run P&L
trigger_source	string	manual, webhook, or scheduler
resolved_expiries	object or null	Resolved expiry by string leg id

Notes

• A non-null stop_requested_at or stop_requested_reason means the run remains open and managed. Do not treat a stop request as proof of flatness.

• On an open run, P&L fields are persisted values rather than a current market mark. Use a finalised Run History record for realised P&L.

• resolved_expiries preserves the contract identity that was chosen at run start.

• A missing strategy and a strategy owned by another user both return HTTP 404 with Strategy not found.
