Retrieve the chart of accounts

Retrieves the workspace’s chart of accounts: the chart document it saved, that document’s version, the rules_version of its caption rules and its active_export_system. Until the workspace saves a chart, chart is null, version is 0 and the platform’s accounts apply; the Statement mapping page lists them with their ids. Requires a plan that includes spreads; other plans get a 403.

Requires the chart_of_accounts:read, chart_of_accounts:write or extractions:read scope. Rate limit: 200 requests per minute per key (the api lane).
