Entity the request operates on — an entity id (ent_<uuid>) or me (the partner's sole entity).

Query Parameters

ownershipType

enum<string>

Available options:

internal,

external

type

enum<string>

Available options:

ach,

check,

card,

domestic-wire,

virtual-card

externalId

string

data.id

string

Opaque account id (acct_)

data.externalId

string

Your own unique identifier for the resource. Unique per partner per resource type (reusing one returns 409 DUPLICATE_EXTERNAL_ID). Distinct from the Idempotency-Key header, which dedupes the request rather than identifying the resource.

Maximum string length: 255

Pattern: ^[A-Za-z0-9_-]+$

data.metadata

object

Free-form string key/value pairs stored and returned verbatim, never interpreted by Melio. Up to 50 keys; each key 1 to 40 chars and may not contain square brackets ([ ], reserved for the metadata[key] filter); value ≤100 chars. Filterable via metadata[key].
