Accounts

An account is one of your firm's custodian accounts, such as an IRA or an individual brokerage account. An account belongs to one household at most, given by its householdId. The console shows accounts on the Accounts tab of the Clients page and on the Portfolio tab of a household.

To find accounts by name, household, model, type, balance or cash, call List accounts with a query in q. To list the accounts of one household, call List the accounts of a household. To change which household an account belongs to, see Accounts assigned to households.

📄️List accounts

Returns your firm's active accounts, in order of name. Send `includeInactive=true` to include inactive accounts, and `id` to return only the accounts with those IDs. Send `balances=true` to add each account's current holdings, balance, cash, cash weight and risk allocation; `riskAllocation.target` is always `{}` here, and **Get an account** returns it. Send `q` to return only the accounts that match a query, and `sort` to order them; `totalCount` counts only the accounts that match.

📄️Update an account

Replaces the model, capital gains budgets, lot selection method, tax rates, tax budget, billing settings and security restrictions of the account with the given ID with the ones in the request body, and returns the account as **Get an account** returns it. Send every required field. A field you leave out or send as `null` is cleared. The billing splits, asset exclusions and security restrictions you send replace all of the account's. `address` is not read. When the account's `existsInBridge` is `true`, its billing start date is also sent to the custodial data feed. If your firm has no account with that ID, the response is `404`.

📄️Create a note for the household of an account

Creates a note with the text in `content` on the CRM records linked to the household of the account with the given ID: its Wealthbox household, then the head of its Redtail family. The household's Slant record gets no note. The response is the note created last, or `data: null` when no note was created, for example when the household is linked to Redtail only and its Redtail family has no members. If your firm has no account with that ID, the response is `404`. Send the ID of an account whose household is linked to Wealthbox or Redtail; see **Update household data connections**.

📄️Update the trading settings of an account

Replaces the model, capital gains budgets, lot selection method, tax rates, tax budget and security restrictions of the account with the given ID with the ones in the request body, and returns the account as **Get an account** returns it without `balances`. Send every required field. A field you leave out or send as `null` is cleared. The security restrictions you send replace all of the account's. If your firm has no account with that ID, the response is `404`.

📄️Update the billing settings of an account

Replaces the fee structure, fee location, billing splits, asset exclusions and billing start date of the account with the given ID with the ones in the request body, and returns the account as **Get an account** returns it without `balances`. Send every required field. A field you leave out or send as `null` is cleared. The billing splits and asset exclusions you send replace all of the account's. Other fields are not read. If your firm has no account with that ID, the response is `404`.

📄️Update the lot selection settings of a household's accounts

Replaces the lot selection method, capital gains budgets, tax rates and tax budget of each account in `accounts` with the ones you send, and returns the lot selection settings of the household with the given ID as **Get the lot selection settings of a household's accounts** returns them. A field you leave out or send as `null` is cleared, and the account uses your firm's default for it. Accounts you leave out do not change. An account ID that is not one of your firm's accounts is skipped. Send the IDs of the household's accounts. If your firm has no household with that ID, the response is `404`.
