Nord Pool's Intraday Trading API is a genuine WebSocket API. Clients open secure WebSocket connections (port 443) and speak STOMP over them to two web services - a Market Data service (public market data streams such as contracts, order books / local views, capacities, delivery areas, and tickers) and a Trading service (order entry, modification, and private execution/trade reports) - for continuous intraday power trading on the Nord Pool platform. Authentication uses a token issued by Nord Pool's SSO for API credentials provisioned by Nord Pool (idapi@nordpoolgroup.com); access requires being a Nord Pool trading customer. Nord Pool also ships a newer Intraday Binary PMD v2 market-data feed over WebSockets using Protocol Buffers. This AsyncAPI document is MODELED - the WebSocket+STOMP transport, dual Market Data / Trading connections, heartbeats, and token refresh are confirmed from Nord Pool's public GitHub examples (NordPool/public-intraday-api and NordPool/public-intraday-api-example) and the developer portal, but exact host names are environment-specific and provided during onboarding, and channel names below are representative rather than verbatim. Consult https://developers.nordpoolgroup.com/ for the authoritative topic list.

Nord Pool's Intraday Trading API is a genuine WebSocket API. Clients open
secure WebSocket connections (port 443) and speak STOMP over them to two
web services - a Market Data service (public market data streams such as
contracts, order books / local views, capacities, delivery areas, and
tickers) and a Trading service (order entry, modification, and private
execution/trade reports) - for continuous intraday power trading on the
Nord Pool platform. Authentication uses a token issued by Nord Pool's SSO
for API credentials provisioned by Nord Pool (idapi@nordpoolgroup.com);
access requires being a Nord Pool trading customer. Nord Pool also ships a
newer Intraday Binary PMD v2 market-data feed over WebSockets using
Protocol Buffers. This AsyncAPI document is MODELED - the WebSocket+STOMP
transport, dual Market Data / Trading connections, heartbeats, and token
refresh are confirmed from Nord Pool's public GitHub examples
(NordPool/public-intraday-api and NordPool/public-intraday-api-example)
and the developer portal, but exact host names are environment-specific
and provided during onboarding, and channel names below are

x-transport-notes: >-
Transport is WebSocket (wss, port 443) carrying STOMP frames - this is a
true bidirectional WebSocket API, unlike HTTP streaming or SSE. Clients
maintain STOMP heartbeats and refresh SSO access tokens over the live
connection. Hosts are per-environment (test and production) and are
issued to onboarded trading customers, so placeholder hosts are used
below.
