Operation ID is invalid (invalid_operation_id) ​

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

The operation ID must be a positive 64-bit TotalOrderID integer.

How to Resolve invalid_operation_id

  1. Inspect the status (400), code (invalid_operation_id), 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.
