Docker for Interactive Broker only works for US Location, how can we make it work for Canada as well

[SRobotic]

Describe the feature

Just installed your Docker container using my MACBook-Pro, I’m just at the stage of connecting to the InteractiveBroker account on localhost:5000, I realized that’s takes me to US Location, where I’m residing in Canada.

It takes we here:

https://localhost:5000/sso/Login?forwardTo=22&RL=1&ip2loc=US

Expected interaction

The Canadian URL for Interactive Broker is:

Whereas actually for Canadian URL for Interactive Broker we should be redirected to:

https://cdcdyn.interactivebrokers.com/sso/Login

Appreciate if we can get any help with this one..

Hi @SRobotic welcome to IBeam and thanks for outlining your issue 👋

Could I suggest having a look at these two configuration variables:

https://github.com/Voyz/ibeam/wiki/IBeam-Configuration#gateway-routes

• IBEAM_GATEWAY_BASE_URL
• IBEAM_ROUTE_AUTH

Would you be able to configure the path the way you require using these two?

I'm on the same boat. Anyone figure how to make it work with IB Canada account yet?

Maybe change the conf.yaml somehow? @SRobotic ?

Hey @codeforce1 - we've had canadian users of IBeam, I'm guessing it's possible. Did you try the setup parameters I suggested?

Hi @codeforce1 @SRobotic I'm closing this issue due to lack of activity, feel free to reopen if you'd like to continue the conversation. The solution to Canadian IBKR accounts seems to be setting the proxyRemoteHost: "https://1.api.ibkr.com" in conf.yaml. See #34

Thanks for participating 👍
