amount_invalid

HTTP status: 422 Unprocessable Entity. Retrying the same request unchanged fails the same way.

Why it happens

• The amount was sent as a JSON number instead of a string, such as 12.5 instead of "12.5".
• It has a sign, an exponent or spaces, or it is empty.
• It is too large to represent.

What to do

Send a plain decimal string in the asset's units, such as "12.5".

Example

The response is application/problem+json. Branch on code, never on title or detail. See errors for the format.
