When a trading account is connected to a broker, Anthid establishes a persistent worker connection that maintains authentication, monitors account health, and synchronizes broker state with the platform. This worker is represented by a trading account connection status. Connection APIs provide visibility into the worker’s current status, allowing clients to determine whether the broker is reachable and the integration is operating normally.

​
Availability

Available on all plans.

​
Intended Purpose

Use connection APIs to:
  • List connection statuses for accounts visible to the caller
  • Verify broker connectivity for a single trading account
  • Monitor active and pending connection health
  • Troubleshoot broker integration issues
The caller must have intent read authorization. User and API-key callers list accounts in their principal organization; service-account callers may list accounts visible to the service credentials.
