/get_accounts

Gets basic bank account names linked to user handle.

This will return a list of account names, along with basic account information, linked to the requested user handle. These are the accounts that were linked using the /link_account endpoint.

If you have been approved to pass account and routing numbers directly through the /link_account, you need not poll this endpoint unless you have a failed transaction and want to investigate.

Requests

The request body at this endpoint is the get_accounts_msg JSON object.

Authorization / Authentication

Apps using Access Token Authorization

Use a valid access token in an Authorization: Bearer request header.

See Authenticating with an Access Token for more details.

Apps using ECDSA Authentication

Both authsignature and usersignature headers are required for this request. The usersignature header should be generated with a keypair registered to the user (either registered from the /register endpoint or the /register_wallet endpoint).

See the section on ECDSA Authentication for more detail about ECDSA signature generation.

Note - We recently renamed the field auth_handle to app_handle. For backward compatibility, auth_handle is still valid but has been removed from our documentation.

🚧

Fuzzy Name Match and the /get_accounts response body

Within the response body of /get_accounts you will see the values:
"match_score": 0.825,
"account_owner_name": "Test User",
"entity_name": "Test User"

The account owner name is the name on the account provided by Plaid or MX, while the entity name is the name of the person or business as provided to Sila through your request to /register.

These two names need to closely match otherwise the account will not be useable. If the match score is less than 0.73 the account will be frozen and not useable.
