Swagger UI quoted vs unquoted longs
When I am entering int64/long values into the swagger UI it seems after a certain amount of digits the lower order values start to get corrupted. Here's an example:
While the value I'm using in productStructureKey ends in 17 the payload converts this to 20 when sending to my application. Interestingly when I wrap it in quotes the correct value works:
With the quoted value of the long the correct value is sent. Here's the model for the relevant section:
| instrumentFilter | {
| ||
| expirationDate | string($date) |
Is this expected behavior or a bug with the generated UI? Do big values for longs need to be quoted to be sent correctly using the UI?
It's a known issue caused by JavaScript limitations. These large numbers fall outside of JavaScript/JSON number range, that's why they are getting rounded. See this discussion for details:
https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-ui/issues/2030
The suggested solution is to transfer large numbers as strings (i.e. change the type from integer to string).
