Handshake failed: "Forbidden: No session"

I'm following the Side by Side Integration API Quick Start.

  • I have Eikon running, I'm logged in
  • I have generated app key, with "Side by Side API" type
  • ping was successful
  • but the handshake request:
{
"command": "handshake",
"productId": "xxx",
"appKey": "yyy"
}

fails with 403 status and message "Forbidden: No session". Eikon shows no prompt.

Any idea what am I doing wrong?

Thanks!
