invalid_limit

422 Unprocessable Content   The requested page size is outside the allowed range.

When you get it

The requested page size is outside the allowed range. It is always answered with HTTP 422 - one code means one status, so a client may key its handling on either.

Fields it carries

Inside each errors[] entry, beside pointer:

parameter
The query parameter the failure is about - the query-side twin of `pointer`.
value
The value the request sent, echoed back so the caller can see what was read.
min
The smallest value this field accepts, inclusive.
max
The largest value this field accepts, inclusive.

A field is omitted when the server genuinely does not know it - an absent member is never the same as an empty one.

How to fix it

The request was well-formed but a value is not acceptable. The fields above name the offending value and what would be accepted - fix the request and retry.
