Binance Api code-1013 msg:Filter failure: MIN_NOTIONAL

This is a quick tutorial on how we can resolve the Filter failure: MIN_NOTIONAL

While using Binance API, when placing the order and calling API we might get the following error.

{
"code":-1013,
"msg":"Filter failure: MIN_NOTIONAL"
}

As described on binance spot API documentation, The MIN_NOTIONAL filter defines the minimum notional value allowed for an order on a symbol. An order's notional value is the price * quantity

Now let's look into what is the required values for MIN_NOTIONAL. We can get it from the exchange info endpoint as below

For BTC USDT

https://api.binance.us/api/v3/exchangeInfo?symbol=BTCUSDT

         "permissions":[

}

For MIN_NOTIONAL:

{
               "filterType":"MIN_NOTIONAL",
               "minNotional":"10.00000000",
               "applyToMarket":true,
               "avgPriceMins":5
            },

So this defines that the limit order placed must be minimum of $10 i.e price * quantity = total here, the total must be at least 10. If this doesn't satisfy then we will get the mentioned error. So the condition must be satisfied while calling the API.
