Use case

The info endpoint with type: "meta" is essential for trading applications that need to:
  • Display available trading pairs and their specifications
  • Validate trade sizes according to decimal precision requirements
  • Implement dynamic leverage limits based on position size
  • Determine which assets require isolated margin mode
  • Filter out delisted assets from trading interfaces
This metadata is typically cached and refreshed periodically to ensure trading applications have up-to-date information about exchange parameters.
