Hi
I'm wondering if any body can help me find a way to receive some data for checking AccountName or AccountNumber from the web .
also I need to receive numbers for opening/closing/modifying positions.
and we are behind of the sender website .
how can I do that ?
thanks
The method is easy. The process is complex... How will you secure the transmission of this sensitive data??

There's not much you really need to do except force redirects to https and make sure you use https in your WebRequest from MQL. I assume you want an EA to send an authentication request to your API with the active account number and name, and then your API sends back a response signaling the EA that it has or has not been authenticated?

That's a server side issue and not appropriate to discuss on this forum. If you need help with SSL certificates and forcing https traffic then you'll need to address that elsewhere. As for MQL you'll need to use the JSON serializer and the built-in WebRequest, and that's it.

I would never recommend any Security standard. It is up to you to figure it out.
1- Your environment.
2- You Clients.
3- Your Security.
Securing your Web exposure is the most crucial, to avoid exploits. At least follow the OWASP rules as the minimum for your internet comm... (https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Main_Page)
