The details object for this endpoint is the same as the one used in the List Transfer requirements endpoint.
Quotes are only valid for a limited time, so it’s recommended to proceed with the transfer promptly after obtaining one. If the quote expires, the transfer will be created with a new generated quote; please note that the exchange rate and fees may differ.
