fineract API Post recurringdepositaccount not working and It is not also covered in the fineract documentation

Question

fineract Post recurringdepositaccount api in postman responds with the error message:

{
    "timestamp": 1568640270686,
    "status": 500,
    "error": "Internal Server Error",
    "exception": "java.lang.NullPointerException",
    "message": null,
    "path": "/fineract-provider/api/v1/recurringdepositaccounts"
}

Here is my request body:

{
  "clientId": 67,
  "productId": 6,
  "locale": "en",
  "dateFormat": "dd MMMM yyyy",
  "submittedOnDate": "13 September 2019",
  "depositPeriodFrequencyId":1,
  "depositPeriod":1,
  "recurringFrequencyType":1,
  "recurringFrequency":1,
  "mandatoryRecommendedDepositAmount":1000,
  "isCalendarInherited":false,
  "preClosurePenalApplicable":false,
  "isMandatoryDeposit":true,
   "allowWithdrawal": false,
   "adjustAdvanceTowardsFuturePayments":false
}

Answer 1

The documentation I could find at https://demo.openmf.org/api-docs/apiLive.htm#rdaccounts (scroll down beyond all the GET examples to get to the POST part) states the following mandatory fields:

clientId or groupId,
productId,
submittedOnDate,
depositPeriod,
depositPeriodFrequencyId,
recurringFrequency,
recurringFrequencyType,
depositAmount,
isCalendarInherited,
mandatoryRecommendedDepositAmount

Of these you appear to be missing depositAmount.
