Account Status

The Account Status API is used to provide Forter model's additional information: indication of accounts closed by the merchant or accounts that changed in status that reflect agreement or disagreement with Forter's sign up decision (use / ignore the decision). The Account Status API is only intended to provide Forter with additional details and does NOT return a new decision. Rather, the response will always be "NOT_REVIEWED". Please see the Account Status Update API Reference for full details.

This API is only used to provide Forter's model's additional information, the decision returned will always be NOT_REVIEWED. Supplementary parameters like correlationId and accountId are also returned in the API response.
