# Get International Payment

`GET /accounts/{account_id}/international/{handle}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.meow.com/v1`
- URL: `https://api.meow.com/v1/accounts/{account_id}/international/{handle}`
- Auth: API key in header `x-api-key`
- TypeScript: <https://skmtc.dev/meow/apis/meow-api/docs/accounts/:account_id/international/:handle/get.ts> (a function with typed inputs; its response is checked against the schema)

Returns an international payment: what the recipient receives, what left your account, and where the payment has got to. `status` is the same vocabulary whichever bank carried it. A payment gets its `handle` once it has been submitted: read it from `executed_transfer.id` on `GET /approvals/{approval_id}`, or from an `international_payment` webhook.

## Path parameters

- `account_id` string, required: The ID of the account.
- `handle` string, required: The `handle` returned when the payment was created, or by an `international_payment` webhook.

## Headers

- `x-entity-id` string, uuid

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- InternationalPayment: The provider-neutral view of one international payment. Amounts follow the domain split: `destination_amount` is what the recipient receives, `source_debit_amount` is the US dollars converted before the fee, and `total_debit_amount` is what actually left the funding account.

    - `platform` 'treasury_prime' | 'crb' | 'bridge' | 'stripe' | 'atomic', required
    - `id` string, uuid, required: Meow's identifier for the account. Its shape depends on `platform`, so read the two together.

## Other responses

- `400`: The request could not be processed.
- `401`: Authentication failed.
- `403`: The API key is not authorized for this operation, or the user of a global API key is an admin or controller without approved KYC. The KYC case returns the message `KYC is required for controllers and admins.` until that user completes KYC in the Meow dashboard.
