# Get Tick Size

> Polymarket-compat ``GET /tick-size/{token_id}``.

Resolution order (freshest source wins):

 - **Grow (0.001 → 0.01)**: previously-valid 0.001-step
 quotes are no longer multiples of the new tick. PM rejects
 with ``INVALID_ORDER_MIN_TICK_SIZE``. This is the case
 where missing the change silently breaks the bot.
 - **Shrink (0.01 → 0.001)**: 0.01-step quotes are still
 valid multiples of 0.001, so orders aren't rejected — but
 the bot is leaving precision on the table and quoting
 less competitively than the rest of the book. SDK
 porters reading PM docs expect tick refresh in both
 directions.

On transient upstream failure (DB/Redis unavailable) the handler
returns ``503`` with ``Retry-After: 2``, NOT a silent default tick.

            Request id for support reference. Always exposed via X-Request-Id
            response header; only inlined in the verbose body.

        Structured error response for all API v1 endpoints.

        * ``error`` carries the human-readable message in the default body
         and the machine code in the verbose body. The machine code is
         ALWAYS exposed via the ``X-Polysim-Code`` response header so SDK
         consumers can switch on a stable identifier without parsing the
         body.
        * ``request_id`` → exposed as the ``X-Request-Id`` response header
         on every response (success and error).

        All non-required fields are ``Optional`` so generated SDK code can
        deserialize *either* shape (PM-default or polysim-verbose) without
        choking on missing keys. Pre-PR ``message`` was required, which
        broke SDK deserialization of the new PM-shape body.
