SDKs and Tools

Webull provides official SDKs to help you integrate with the OpenAPI platform. The SDKs wrap the REST and streaming APIs so you can focus on building your application instead of handling low-level details.

Here's what the SDKs handle for you:

• Authentication — Automatic signature generation and token management
• Trading — Place, modify, and cancel orders across stocks, ETFs, options, warrants, and CBBCs
• Market Data — Fetch historical data via HTTP and subscribe to real-time streams via MQTT
• Order Events — Subscribe to real-time order status updates via gRPC

Official SDKs

Python

Requirements: Python 3.8 – 3.13

pip3 install --upgrade webull-openapi-python-sdk

Source code: webull-openapi-python-sdk

Java

Requirements: JDK 8+

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.webull.openapi</groupId>
    <artifactId>webull-openapi-java-sdk</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.3</version> <!-- Check https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/com.webull.openapi/webull-openapi-java-sdk for the latest version -->

API Environments

Webull provides two environments. Use the sandbox environment for development and integration testing, then switch to production when you're ready to go live.

Production

Service	Host
HTTP API	api.webull.hk
Trading Events (gRPC)	events-api.webull.hk
Market Data Streaming (MQTT)	data-api.webull.hk

Sandbox

Service	Host
HTTP API	api.sandbox.webull.hk
Trading Events (gRPC)	events-api.sandbox.webull.hk
Market Data Streaming (MQTT)	data-api.sandbox.webull.hk

tip

To switch environments, simply change the endpoint when initializing the SDK client. No other code changes are needed.

Test Accounts

Use these shared credentials to start coding immediately — no application required for the sandbox environment.

No.	Account ID	App Key	App Secret

caution

These accounts are shared publicly. Orders and positions may change at any time. If related to trading, functionality is not affected; if related to market data, access is currently limited to the symbol AAPL (including real-time streaming). If you need a dedicated test account, contact our support team.

Verify Your Setup

After installing the SDK, run this quick check to confirm everything is working:

Python

import json
from webull.core.client import ApiClient
from webull.trade.trade_client import TradeClient

api_client = ApiClient("<your_app_key>", "<your_app_secret>", "hk")
api_client.add_endpoint("hk", "api.sandbox.webull.hk")

trade_client = TradeClient(api_client)
res = trade_client.account_v2.get_account_list()
if res.status_code == 200:
    print("Success!", json.dumps(res.json(), indent=2))
else:
    print("Error:", res.status_code, res.text)

Java

import com.webull.openapi.core.http.HttpApiConfig;
import com.webull.openapi.trade.TradeClientV2;

public class VerifySetup {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        HttpApiConfig config = HttpApiConfig.builder()
                .appKey("<your_app_key>")
                .appSecret("<your_app_secret>")
                .regionId("hk")
                .endpoint("api.sandbox.webull.hk")
                .build();

        TradeClientV2 client = new TradeClientV2(config);
        System.out.println("Account list: " + client.getAccountList());
    }
}

If you see your account list returned, you're all set.
