Rest Catalog Open Api Decimal Type Value Structure

Decimal type values are serialized as strings. Decimals with a positive scale serialize as numeric plain text, while decimals with a negative scale use scientific notation and the exponent will be equal to the negated scale. For instance, a decimal with a positive scale is '123.4500', with zero scale is '2', and with a negative scale is '2E+20'
