Not able to update SL, TP using pybit sdk

Question

I am trying to change the Stop_loss and take_profit for my open order. I am using this method to update my SL. When I run the code, I get this error:

2022-06-04:14:39:12,782 DEBUG    [connectionpool.py:465] https://api-testnet.bybit.com:443 "POST /private/linear/position/trading-stop HTTP/1.1" 200 209

Can someone help me fix this error?

This is my code:

     try:
        ret = session.set_trading_stop(
            symbol=symbol,
            side=side,
            stop_loss=new_sl,
            # sl_size=10000000
        )
        pprint(ret)
        res = ret['ret_code']
    except:
        log.error("Failed changing the stop_loss")

I get this error message when this method is executed. I keep getting the failed message.

You're trying to edit the position stop loss value in one way mode, in that case position_idx param with value 0 (for one way mode) is required.
