Error Codes & Troubleshooting

Response Format

All v2 error responses follow this shape:

{
  "code": "QUOTE_OVER_LIMIT",
  "message": "Unable to perform exchange, quote over 100000 USD",
  "requestId": "94eb4a6f-12ca-4f22-9d0c-7ffd65ace1c7"
}

Field	Type	Description
`code`	string	Machine-readable error code (stable enum value). Match on this field.
`message`	string	Human-readable description. May contain dynamic values — use regex if needed.
`requestId`	string	Unique request identifier for support/debugging.

Always match on the code string, not the HTTP status or message text. The code values are a stable enum and won’t change without a breaking version bump.

Special Response Shapes

Validation errors include a fields object with per-field details:

{
  "code": "VALIDATION_ERROR",
  "message": "Validation Failed",
  "requestId": "...",
  "fields": {
    "amount": {
      "message": "Amount must be positive",
      "value": -5
    }
  }
}

Rate limit errors include retry metadata:

{
  "code": "RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED",
  "message": "FREE tier: 20 quote requests per minute. Try again in 45 seconds.",
  "requestId": "...",
  "retryAfter": 45,
  "meta": {
    "retryAfter": 45,
    "limit": 20,
    "windowType": "minute",
    "operationType": "quote",
    "tier": "free"
  }
}

Best Practices

Match on code, not message — The code field is a stable string enum. Messages may contain dynamic values and can change without notice.
Use regex for dynamic messages — For codes like QUOTE_OVER_LIMIT, AMOUNT_TOO_LOW, SWAP_AMOUNT_IS_OUT_OF_BOUNDS, extract the dynamic part with a regex:
```
/Unable to perform exchange, quote over (\d+) USD/
/Amount is too low, minimum is ([\d.]+) USD/
```
Handle 422 as your primary error status — Most business logic errors return 422, not 400 or 500.
Respect retryAfter — On 429 responses, wait the specified number of seconds before retrying. The meta object provides additional context about which limit was hit.
Log requestId — Always log the requestId from error responses. Include it when contacting support for faster debugging.
Implement exponential backoff for 500/503 — These are transient errors. Retry with backoff (e.g. 1s, 2s, 4s) up to 3 attempts.
Don’t retry 422 errors — These are deterministic. The same request will produce the same error. Fix the input before retrying.
