Returns a superset of the list item: the derived legal_entity (the verified name and registered address, which the editable name does not track), fiat_entity (the state of the organization’s fiat-payout application), and has_payout_entity. List rows omit those three.

Section titled “Responses”Member-readable organization
object
The organization’s Ele ID, or null until one has been provisioned. Addressing only — never a trust signal; confirm the verified name before sending money.
object
When fiat payouts were requested for this organization
Why the most recent fiat address-proof review was rejected, if it was
User-facing status of the fiat-payout application
Whether an active fiat-payout entity exists for this organization
Whether this is your primary organization (see setPrimaryOrganization)
The name the organization is verified under and the address it is registered at — derived from verification, not from the editable organization name.
object
object
ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code
object
Permission keys granted to you in this organization, derived by the server from your role and per-member grants. Membership in this list is the only supported way to decide what to show; the server remains the enforcer.
Your membership role in this organization. For display only — gate features on permissions, never on the role name.
White-label partner branding applied to this organization.
object
object
Null until a logo has been uploaded for the partner; show no partner logo in that state.
object
Dark-theme logo variant. Null means no dark variant exists and clients should fall back to logo on dark themes — never render nothing.
object
Partner brand name; customer-visible.

Error response. error.type is the machine-readable code — branch on it, never on error.message or the HTTP status. error.message is display-grade prose safe to render to a user; when a failure has no specific copy it falls back to a generic sentence, so it never carries a machine code. Unrecognised failures collapse to the generic unprocessable_entity code, so treat type as an open enum: match the codes you handle and fall through to a default branch for the rest.

Structured error details (e.g. validation errors), when present
Display-grade message, safe to render verbatim. Never a machine code — do not branch on it.

The step-up authentication this challenge was minted from — a DIFFERENT id from id (the sudo session). completeStepUp takes id as sudo_session_id; requestStepUpFallback takes this one.
