## Parameters

| Name | In | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `raw` | query | `boolean` | No | Include raw response. Mostly used for debugging purposes |
| `x-apideck-consumer-id` | header | `string` | Yes | ID of the consumer which you want to get or push data from |
| `x-apideck-app-id` | header | `string` | Yes | The ID of your Unify application |
| `x-apideck-service-id` | header | `string` | No | Provide the service id you want to call (e.g., pipedrive). Only needed when a consumer has activated multiple integrations for a Unified API. |
| `x-apideck-company-id` | header | `string` | No | The ID of the company to scope requests to. For connectors that support multi-company, this overrides the default company configured in connection settings. |
| `cursor` | query | `string` | No | Cursor to start from. You can find cursors for next/previous pages in the meta.cursors property of the response. |
| `limit` | query | `integer` | No | Number of results to return. Minimum 1, Maximum 200, Default 20 |
| `pass_through` | query | `object` | No | Optional unmapped key/values that will be passed through to downstream as query parameters. Ie: ?pass_through[search]=leads becomes ?search=leads |
| `fields` | query | `string` | No | The 'fields' parameter allows API users to specify the fields they want to include in the API response. If this parameter is not present, the API will return all available fields. If this parameter is present, only the fields specified in the comma-separated string will be included in the response. Nested properties can also be requested by using a dot notation. <br /><br />Example: `fields=name,email,addresses.city`<br /><br />In the example above, the response will only include the fields "name", "email" and "addresses.city". If any other fields are available, they will be excluded. |

- `data` `array of object` **required**
  - `id` `string` — A unique identifier for an object. — example: `12345`
  - `name` `string` — Name of the fiscal period as shown in the accounting system. — example: `Jan 2026`
  - `fiscal_year` `string` — The calendar year in which the period's fiscal year ends, as four digits (Jul 2025 to Jun 2026 is `2026`). Derived from the fiscal year's end date; the accounting system's own label is in `name`. — example: `2026`
  - `period_number` `integer` — Position of the period within its fiscal year, starting at 1. — example: `1`
  - `start_date` `string` — First day of the period (inclusive). — format: `date` — example: `2026-01-01`
  - `end_date` `string` — Last day of the period (inclusive). — format: `date` — example: `2026-01-31`
  - `status` `string` — Whether transactions can be posted into the period. `open`: postings are accepted on at least the last day of the period; a lock date inside the period still rejects earlier dates (see `locked_through`). `locked`: posting is blocked for some users or transaction types only, for example everyone except advisers or administrators. `closed`: posting is blocked for all users until the period or year is reopened. `future`: the accounting system reports the period as not yet opened. Null or absent means the connector does not expose the period's status. — enum: `open`, `locked`, `closed`, `future` — example: `open`
  - `locked_through` `string` — The last date in the period on which the accounting system's lock date rejects postings for at least some users: the lock date itself, or the period's end date when the lock date is later. Null when no lock date reaches the period or the connector does not expose lock dates. — format: `date` — example: `2026-09-30`
  - `type` `string` — Whether this record is a posting period, or a quarter or year that groups posting periods. — enum: `period`, `quarter`, `year` — example: `period`

  - `total_count` `integer` — Number of records available in total for this resource — example: `1`
  - `warnings` `array of object` — Non-fatal warnings emitted when optional workflow steps failed. Present only when at least one step degraded; the response status remains 200.
    - `type` `string` — Discriminator for the warning kind. — example: `downstream_request_failed`
    - `status_code` `integer` — HTTP status code returned by the failed downstream request, when available. — example: `429`
    - `error` `string` — Short error description from the downstream provider, when available.
    - `operation` `string` — Identifier of the workflow step that failed. — example: `getManager`
