Retrieve sub-entity details
Beta
Last updated: March 25, 2026
You can retrieve the details of an existing sub-entity on your platform by using the API.
To retrieve the details of a sub-entity, call the Get entity details endpoint, and provide the sub-entity ID as the {id} path parameter. For example, https://{prefix}.api.checkout.com/accounts/entities/ent_nofjig36ypra6236f4tfm5bvui.
Information
Your base URL's {prefix} value is unique to your account and environment. To learn how to retrieve your base URLs for the sandbox and production environments, see API endpoints.
get
https://{prefix}.api.checkout.com/accounts/entities/{id}
The response returns all information about the sub-entity, including its status, and capabilities, which you can refer to to understand their processing abilities.
If the sub-entity is in requirements_due status, the response also includes a requirements_due object that lists the affected fields along with the reason each field was rejected.
