Is there a way to limit decimal or round off values coming from API?

Hi,

As the subject suggests there is a need to limit the decimal of the property values that is coming from an API.

The decimal limited value should be rounded off to the specified decimal.

For example the property 'volume' of 'API_RailingBalusterQuantity' is giving a value of 7.1108929735418900e-05 or 0.0000711089297354189, but we would like that value to be rounded off to 4 decimal places.

The value should be '0.0001'.

Please help me on this.

Thanks & Regards

I dont exactly understand the question.

The result of API_RailingBalusterQuantity() gets stored to local variable. After that you can round it as you desire using c/c++ functions/routines like round().
