I am placing an alice blue order using placeOrder,

````auto
        order_id = alice.place_order(
            transaction_type=TransactionType.Buy if intraday_order['Trantype'] == 'B' else TransactionType.Sell,
            instrument=alice.get_instrument_by_symbol('NFO', intraday_order['Tsym']), 
            quantity=int(quantity),
            order_type = OrderType.Market if intraday_order['Prctype'] == 'MKT' else OrderType.Limit if intraday_order['Prctype'] == 'SL' else None,
            product_type=ProductType.Delivery,
            order_tag='trade_order'
        )```

But I am getting below error, 
Error placing delivery order: 'dict' object has no attribute 'exchange'

Please help if something has changed in the apis

```auto
> print(alice.get_trade_book())
> print(alice.get_instrument_for_fno(exch="NFO",symbol='BANKNIFTY', expiry_date="2024-02-14", is_fut=False,strike=45000, is_CE=True))

```

```auto
> 
> {'stat': 'Not_ok', 'emsg': '401 - Unauthorized', 'encKey': None}
> Instrument(exchange='NFO', token=46404, symbol='BANKNIFTY', name='BANKNIFTY14FEB24C45000', expiry='2024-02-14', lot_size=15)

```

I am not sure why get\_instrument\_from\_fno is working on Sunday, but get\_trade\_book, get\_scrip\_info are not working. This is happening quite frequently. Can you help understand this
