Companies API
Companies exist so resellers can separate their resources by client. AFID and CID values are scoped per Company, so there are no collisions between Companies. Each Company also has its own balance, payment settings, and embedded-affiliate key.
Company endpoints authenticate with api_key alone. For other API resources, pass company_id to select the Company for the request; if omitted, the request uses the active Company for the authenticated user.

{

Get the active Company
curl "https://api.retreaver.com/company.json?api_key=[api_key]"The above command returns a single Company object.
Returns the currently active Company for the authenticated user. This is the Company used by API requests made without a specific company_id.
Warning
Always pass company_id explicitly when working with other resources. Switching Companies in the web interface also switches the active Company for the API, so relying on the active Company can produce surprising results in shared accounts.
