Troubleshooting
- Common issues include invalid Bitcoin address input, which will cause the API request to fail. Ensure the address is correctly formatted.
- If the limit parameter is set outside the allowed range (less than 1 or greater than 50), the node may not behave as expected. Set the limit within the specified range.
- Network or API downtime can cause request failures; check network connectivity and Mempool.space API status.
- Error messages from the node will indicate unsupported operations or API request failures. Verify the operation and input parameters are correct.
