Limit parameter is invalid (invalid_limit) ​

HTTP 400Orion /v3 ProblemCode: invalid_limit
Type URI: https://orion.stellarchain.io/problems/invalid_limit

The `limit` query parameter must be an integer between `1` and `200`.

How to Resolve invalid_limit

  1. Inspect the status (400), code (invalid_limit), and detail fields in the JSON response.
  2. For 400 validation errors (invalid_*), verify query parameters against the Endpoints Reference or Statistics Catalog (GET /v3/statistics).
  3. For 404 errors (*_not_found), confirm the resource exists on Stellar Pubnet.
  4. For 409, 429, 503, or 504 transient states, retry with exponential backoff.
