#### Step 1: Clone the Template Spreadsheet
1. Open the [OpenAlgo Trading Template](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DyTIgucTDzBQaBMGOolT4mbS2Mlv45b2gbzU8aisvpw/edit?usp=sharing)
2. Click "File" > "Make a copy" to create a duplicate of the spreadsheet.
3. In the "Make a copy" dialog, enter a name for your copy of the spreadsheet, such as "My OpenAlgo Trading Sheet".
4. Ensure the "Folder" is set to your desired location, such as "My Drive".
5. Click the "Make a copy" button to create the new spreadsheet.
#### Step 2: Configure API Settings
1. Open the cloned spreadsheet
2. Go to Extensions > AppScript editor
3. Locate these lines in the script:
4.
````
```javascript
````
````
var apikey = "";
var hostServer = "https://your-ngrok-domain.ngrok-free.app";
```
````
5\. Replace with your OpenAlgo credentials:
* `apikey`: Your unique OpenAlgo API key
* HostSefver: Your Custom Domain or Free Ngrok Domain where OpenAlgo is hosted
#### Spreadsheet Structure
The template contains two main sheets:
* **PlaceOrder**: For entering trade details
* **Logs**: Automatic logging of trade orders
**PlaceOrder Sheet Columns**
| Column | Description | Example |
| ------ | --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| C3 | Exchange | NSE, BSE, NFO, MCX, CDS |
| D3 | OpenAlgo Symbol | INFY, RELIANCE |
| E3 | Action | BUY/SELL |
| F3 | Price Type | MARKET/LIMIT/SL/SL-M |
| G3 | Total Quantity | 100 |
| H3 | Price | 1500.50 (for LIMIT/STOP) |
| I3 | Trigger Price | 1480.00 (for STOP) |
| J3 | Split Size |
0 - No SplitOrder Specific Number - Send Split order with split size quantity
|
| K3 | Product Type | INTRADAY/DELIVERY |
#### Split Order Functionality
* **Split Size 0**: Entire quantity in one order
* **Split Size > 0**: Multiple orders of specified size
#### Execution
1. Fill in trade details in the PlaceOrder sheet
2. Press the PlaceOrder function
3. Check response in cell C9
4. View detailed logs in the Logs sheet

### Troubleshooting
#### Common Issues
1. **API Key Invalid**
* Verify key in OpenAlgo dashboard
* Check network connectivity
* Ensure API key has trading permissions
2. **Host URL Incorrect**
* Confirm exact URL from OpenAlgo platform
* Check for any trailing slashes
* Verify ngrok or custom endpoint
3. **Permissions**
* Accept Google Sheets script permissions
* Verify API key authorization
### Security Notes
* Keep API key confidential
* Use secure, unique API keys
* Regularly rotate credentials
* Monitor trading activities
