# accounts.restore

## What it does

Restore an archived financial account, so payments can use it again; its history is unchanged. It comes back as not the default: make it the default with accounts.update.

## Before you send it

An authorized OAuth connection may call it, including a headless client. Effective membership, application grant and token permissions still apply. Describe `accounts.restore` through `GET /v1/catalog/commands/{name}` before acting.

This command does not accept `source_document_id` in its envelope. Any input evidence requirements remain as documented below.

## Inputs

Put these fields inside the envelope's `input` object. The outer envelope names the command, a stable `idempotency_key` and `effective_at`; [request and recovery rules](/docs/api/) explain those separately. Use exact minor-unit integer strings for monetary fields. Take existing IDs from prior reads or command results; choose a new identity only where the command asks for one.

Required means required within its containing object; an optional parent can be omitted.

| Field | Type | Required | Meaning and accepted values |
|---|---|---|---|
| `financialAccountId` | string | Yes |  Minimum length: `1`. Example: `"fa_example_bank"`. |

## After acceptance

When the command emits events, its documented effects and receipt are recorded in the command transaction. The response returns `commandId`, `replayed`, the command-specific `result` below and emitted `events` with their IDs and CIDs. A command is not automatically a cash movement or revenue recognition: use the behavior above to determine what this command records.

Inspect `result` and the affected records or reports before continuing. Save returned identifiers for later calls. Fetch `GET /v1/commands/{id}` with `commandId` to recover the accepted receipt; retry the same intent with the same idempotency key if the response was lost. Some commands can succeed with `events: []` and return a transient result and `commandId` without persisting a receipt. A lookup of that ID can return null; retain the returned result and verify the affected record. Retrying can re-evaluate the current state rather than replay a stored result. A domain `no_change` is a separate success outcome with no persisted receipt.

### Result fields

Required means required within its containing object; an optional parent can be omitted.

| `isDefault` | boolean | Yes |   |
| `archived` | boolean | Yes |   |
| `ownerPartyId` | string | No |  Minimum length: `1`. |
| `providerPartyId` | string | No |  Minimum length: `1`. |
| `providerContractId` | string | No |  Minimum length: `1`. |
| `last4` | string | No |  Pattern: `"^[0-9]{4}$"`. |
| `network` | string | No |  Minimum length: `1`. |
