Note: Asset names for sellAsset and buyAsset should follow the following nomenclature:

"BTC.BTC"or"ARB.ETH")Chain.Asset-ContractAddress (e.g.,
"ETH.USDC-0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48")
When you test your integration, use an address with enough sellAsset balance to cover the trade. This will ensure you receive complete responses.
Example request
A simple request to trade ETH.ETHto BTC.BTCmay omit the providerslist if you can manage them in the response, but should include the amount, the involved addresses and slippage settings.
The expiration time returned by the endpoint is an estimation. We recommend requesting a new quote at least every minute if the trade has not been executed yet.
