range-too-early

The time range starts before 1970.

  • Status: 422 Unprocessable Entity
  • Route: POST /api/v1/generate-events
  • Description: range starts too early: expected from on or after 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z
  • Details: from, the bound as the request gave it.

Why It Happens#

from lies before 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z. A restore into EventSourcingDB refuses events before that instant, so SynthEvents does not generate any, in either format.

How to Fix It#

Let the range start on or after 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z.

Example#
