# Master Balance

Query your master account balances

Paste this query to the GraphQL Playground

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="JavaScript" %}

```javascript
const bodyJSON = {
  operationName: "balances",
  variables: {
    currencies: ["AUD"],
  },
  query: `
query balances($currencies: [CurrencyIso3]) {
  balances(currencies: $currencies) {
    currency cleared pending
  }
}`,
};
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="GraphQL Query" %}

```graphql
query balances($currencies: [CurrencyIso3]){
  balances(currencies: $currencies) {
    currency
    cleared
    pending
  }
}
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Variables" %}

```
{
  "currencies": ["AUD"]
}
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Response" %}

```javascript
{
  "data": {
    "balances": [
      {
        "currency": "AUD",
        "cleared": 3860,
        "pending": 0
      }
    ]
  }
}
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

The `cleared` is the **Primary** balance you see on the Flash Connect website.

The `pending` balance is typically not shown on the Flash Connect interface because it's rather short lived. If your **Pending** balance is not 0 then you can see it right next to the **Primary** balance.

If you omit the `currencies` input argument then the query would return all the currency balances you have. Contact us to enable more than just the default `AUD` currency.

### Top up your UAT account balance

If you need to increase your **UAT** account balance please sign in to the **Flash Connect** website, open **Deposits** page, and click **Send Test Deposit**.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://developer.flash-payments.com/accounts/master-balance.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
