Get Account

Retrieve all profile data for an account, along with the account's verification status

Accounts Overview

🚧

Use Masquerading

If you're requesting an account which is not your own because you're acting on behalf of the account holder, you will need to use the masqueradeAs URL parameter. Both accounts/{accountId} and masqueradeAs={accountId} should be the sub account value.

You will encounter AccessDeniedException responses if you attempt to access a different account without this.

Sample
https://api.testwyre.com/v3/accounts/AC_B8J8NTYRY2G?masqueradeAs=AC_B8J8NTYRY2G

This is a Python 3.7 Module that gets a Wyre Account
information using secret key authentication.

You can only use this module for getting individual
or business accounts if you already have an account set up.

If you do not have a business or individual account with a secretKey/ApiKey,
go through the sign-up process for a test account here: https://www.testwyre.com/
