Subject: Re: External DATA-INTO not matching variable
Why on earth would they convert it to an exponent form? Makes no sense.
If you included a decimal e.g. 1000.00 would they still do that?

Fortunately, the element in question is a repeat of what I am sending them. Rather inconsequential.
So I just changed it to send 1001 instead of 1000.
This is using the TaxJar web service so I can verify our taxes on an order.
All I am interested in is the Tax Rates that are returned for the ship to address.

Subject: Re: External DATA-INTO not matching variable
Data-Into uses %Dec rules to convert the character string to numeric. Those rules state:
If the parameter is a character expression • See Rules for converting
character values to numeric values using built-in functions for the rules for character expressions for %DEC.
• Floating point data, for example '1.2E6', is not allowed.
• If invalid numeric data is found, an exception occurs with status code 105.
In other words the exact symptoms you are experiencing.
The only simple thing I can think of - assuming the folks who send you the JSON won't change it - is to change any fields that may exhibit this issue to character and then manually convert them using $Dec or whatever. That would allow you to use Monitor blocks to trap conversion errors and process them appropriately.
