How to get my shares amount in ib_insync?

Question

I have an Interactive Broker account and use ib_insync python package to work with IB API.

I've bought some shares of one company via multiple transactions. How to get the total amount of shares of that company which I have? I need it to know how much I can sell.

Thanks!

Basically you would just need to use the positions() function

from ib_insync import *
util.startLoop()

ib = IB()
ib.connect('127.0.0.1', 7497, clientId=1)
ib.positions()
