  OpenAPI type: <code>integer (int64)</code>.

  Balance DELTA to apply to the current balance. Negative values will decrease the balance, positive values will increase the balance.

<ParamField body="deduplicationId" type="string" required>
  Identifier of this logical update, used to de-duplicate. The caller MUST use a distinct id for every distinct update, and MUST reuse the same id when retrying an update that failed after a retryable error. An already processed id is ignored, while a fresh id applies the delta again. Required
