Currency with code: ${req.params.code} was not found

Error message

Currency with code: ${req.params.code} was not found

What it means

The GET /admin/currencies/:code route runs a remote query against the currency entity (from the region/currency data seeded by the currency module); an unknown code throws NOT_FOUND (HTTP 404).

Solutions

1. Use valid ISO 4217 codes (e.g. usd, eur) exactly as returned by GET /admin/currencies
2. Ensure the currency is enabled/installed in the store before querying it
3. List currencies first and derive the code from the response

const { currencies } = await sdk.currency.list()
const codeOk = currencies.some((c) => c.code === code.toLowerCase())
if (!codeOk) throw new Error(`Unsupported currency code: ${code}`)

const isValidISOCurrency = (code: string): boolean =>
  /^[a-z]{3}$/.test(code) && SUPPORTED_CODES.has(code)

try { await getCurrency(code) } catch (e) { if (e.statusCode === 404) showCurrencyPicker() else throw e }

When it happens

Trigger: GET /admin/currencies/usdX (invalid/mistyped code); querying a currency not installed in the store's currency settings.

Common situations: Passing lowercase vs uppercase mismatch expectations, full currency names instead of ISO 4217 codes, or codes for currencies never enabled in the store.
