Request a quote for converting currency between two of your accounts.

The quote includes:

• Exchange rate
• Destination amount after conversion
• Validity period (expiresAt)
• Quote type (type)

Quote Expiration:
expiresAt is the time until which the quote can be submitted (usually a minute or less, depending on the vendor). After expiresAt, execution is rejected. The validity period does not lock the rate.

Quote Type:
type is returned on the quote. It is not a request parameter.

• executable: The rate is locked. Executing before expiresAt settles at the quoted rate
• indicative: The rate may change, including before expiresAt. The sell amount is fixed. The buy amount may differ from the quoted destination amount on execution

Instruction Type:
Use instructionType to control whether the amount represents the source or destination side:

• sell (default): The amount is the source amount you are selling
• buy: The amount is the destination amount you want to buy

Requirements:

• Both accounts must belong to your organization
• Source and destination currencies must be different
• Amount must be a positive number
