    Hi nkm,

    Thanks for reaching out, The API Team is a technical support team trained to support the AccountRight and Essentials API. We provide support and advice for the API via the use of JSON and HTTP traces however we are not developers so do not know full languages. 

    I have tested this endpoint to ensure there were no issues on the endpoint using `GeneralLedger/Account?$filter = Type eq 'OtherAsset'` which gave a 200 successful responses. 

    I recommend double-checking the format of the filter as that does not look quite right when I decoded this. 

    Thanks,

Hi Hannah_B ,

Thank you for the reply. I have double checked the format and there was no problem with it. The issue was the way I handled the headers.

Looking for something else?
