Representatives

Get a sub-entity's representatives

Retrieve the representatives of one of your sub-entities, onboarded through our <a href="https://www.checkout.com/docs/platforms" target="_blank">Platforms solution</a>.

Representatives are the individuals disclosed against the sub-entity, such as its ultimate beneficial owners (UBOs), control person, and authorised signatories. If a change to them is under review, this endpoint returns the submitted list with a pending status by default, so you can retrieve a change you've already submitted.

To retrieve the representatives currently in effect while a change is under review, send GET /accounts/entities/{id}/representatives?status=active. To retrieve only a change under review, send GET /accounts/entities/{id}/representatives?status=pending.

get/accounts/entities/{id}/representatives

Request

Path parameters

idstring required

The sub-entity's ID.

Query parameters

status'active' | 'pending'

The version of the sub-entity's representatives to return. Selects which version the endpoint returns, rather than filtering the list.

Use active to retrieve the representatives currently in effect. This shows you the list a pending change would replace once approved.

Use pending to retrieve the list submitted in a change that is still under review. The request returns 404 if no change is under review.

If you omit this parameter and a change is under review, the endpoint returns the pending list. Otherwise, it returns the active list.

Response

Representatives retrieved successfully

status'active' | 'pending'

The status of the representatives. This describes the data in this response, not the sub-entity's own status.

active means the list is live. pending means a change has been submitted and is still under review, so the list shown is the one you submitted, not the one currently in effect.

Read-only on input. You can send a response body back unchanged in a PUT request, and this field is ignored.
