The venue’s accounts are reached under /api/partner/venues/{venueId}/accounts… with a Venue key, and under /api/operator/venues/{venueId}/accounts… from the back office. Each call runs the same operation the Legacy Partner API has always run on a firm’s accounts, behind a named scope: same ledger-first ordering, same idempotency rule, same refusals. These routes are a private preview: they answer 404 unless the deployment enables VENUE_CONFIGURATION_ENABLED and has a configured vault. Every write takes an Idempotency-Key. Retrying with the same key and the same body recovers the same result; the same key with a different body is a 409.
1

Issue an account into a group

Issue an account into a group takes account:issue. It names the group, the trader’s trdrs sign-in email, a startingBalance in whole dollars (1000 to 10000000) and your own referenceId (at most 80 characters).
The venue must hold a firm (else 404 no_firm) and the group must have a route (else 409 group_has_no_route): an account that could never open a position is refused before anything is issued. An unknown trader email is 404 no_user_with_that_email; the trader signs up first, then you re-post. A retry with the same referenceId returns the same account with created: false. Persist the returned accountId; every later call names the account by it.

List the venue's accounts

List a venue’s accounts takes account:read and returns every account the venue holds, ordered by accountId, with the group it sits in, the trader’s email and status where a firm issued it, and the paper balance where the paper book keeps one. Pages are at most 100 rows; pass after with the accountId the last page ended on.
3

Credit, debit or adjust the balance

Credit, debit or adjust an account’s balance takes balance:write. The Idempotency-Key is your referenceId: the ledger row is written first, keyed on it, so a repeat answers 409 duplicate_reference and moves nothing a second time. amount is always positive; op carries the direction.
Operational money stays separate from trading P&L. On a deployment with several engine machines, an account owned elsewhere answers 503 with Retry-After rather than being applied here.
4

Reset an account to its starting balance

Reset an account to its starting balance takes account:reset. Positions and working orders are cleared, the balance returns to startingBalance, and the reset is stamped on the account. Ledger-first on the Idempotency-Key, so a retried pipeline can never reset twice; the duplicate answers 409 duplicate_reference.
5

Halt, and lift your own halt

Halt trading on an account and Resume trading on an account take risk:halt and an empty JSON body. A halt stops new orders until the venue resumes it and closes nothing; resume clears the venue’s own halt and nothing else. Both are idempotent. A lock the venue does not own, a risk control that fired or an evaluation breach, is never replaced: 409 lock_conflict names it.
6

Read the account's analytics

Read an account’s analytics takes account:read: net trading P&L excluding balance adjustments, trading days, breaches and equity samples, measured on the session rule in the query (timeZone, rolloverHour; the firm’s default applies when omitted) and optionally before equityBefore. The measurements are the ones Account analytics and stage eligibility explains field by field.

Safety limits, instruments and stages

Three more reads and writes sit beside the account, under the venue’s conditions and stages:
  • POST /api/partner/venues/{venueId}/conditions/accounts/{accountId}/risk tightens one account’s own safety limits, and GET …/conditions/accounts/{accountId}/effective reads the resolved answer with the layer that decided each value.
  • GET /api/partner/venues/{venueId}/accounts/{accountId}/instruments reads the venue’s activated catalog resolved against this one account, with every blocked instrument and its reasons.
  • GET …/accounts/{accountId}/stages/{stageId}/eligibility and POST …/stages/{stageId}/advance measure and advance a stage.
Run a venue walks through all three in order.

Where to go deeper

  • Prop firms — the group these accounts are issued into, and the stage rule that moves a trader on.
  • Venue keys — the scopes above, and why a browser never holds one.
  • Run firm accounts — the Legacy Partner API calls, each mapped to its twin here.
  • Receive eventsaccount.reset, balance.recorded, risk.locked and risk.unlocked on your own server.
