**Configuring the .env File**&#x20;

The Definedge API Token is used as the API key and API Secrets as API Secret itself. Below is a sample configuration for the .env file     &#x20;

\#Definedge Broker Configuration

```
# Definedge Broker Configuration
BROKER_API_KEY = 'your_API_Token_here'
BROKER_API_SECRET = 'your_API_Secret_here' 
REDIRECT_URL = 'http://127.0.0.1:5000/definedge/callback' 
```

**Important Notes**

* Ensure that your **API Secret Key and API Token** are stored securely and is not shared publicly.
* The **REDIRECT\_URL** should match the one registered with your API application.

Follow these steps to integrate Definedge with OpenAlgo successfully. If you encounter any issues, refer to the Definedge API documentation for further assistance.
