  - `Optional<AccessType> accessType`

    How the platform uses the API for this entity. `application` (default): the profile represents an individual end-user of the platform's product. `passthrough`: the profile identifies a company the platform resells Claude access to.

    format: date-time

  - `Optional<Metadata> metadata`

## Returns

- `class BetaUserProfile`

  A record of an entity that the platform serves through the API, such as an end-user of the platform's product or a company that the platform resells Claude access to.

  A Messages, Message Batches or token counting request can send a profile's `id` in the `anthropic-user-profile-id` header to attribute the request to that entity.

  - `Type type`

    Object type. Always `user_profile`.

  - `String id`

    Unique identifier for this user profile, prefixed `uprof_`.

  - `LocalDateTime createdAt`

    When this user profile was created, in RFC 3339 format.

    format: date-time

  - `Metadata metadata`

    Arbitrary key-value metadata. Maximum 16 pairs, keys up to 64 chars, values up to 512 chars.

  - `TrustGrants trustGrants`

    Trust grants for this profile, keyed by grant name. Key omitted when no grant is active or in flight.

    - `Status status`

      Status of the trust grant.

      - `ACTIVE("active")`

      - `PENDING("pending")`

      - `REJECTED("rejected")`

  - `LocalDateTime updatedAt`

    When this user profile was last modified, in RFC 3339 format. Trust-grant status changes also bump this timestamp.

    format: date-time

  - `Optional<AccessType> accessType`

    How the platform uses the API for this entity: `application` (default) or `passthrough`. Present under the `user-profiles-2026-08-18` and later beta headers.

    - `APPLICATION("application")`

      The user profile represents an individual end-user of a product that the platform builds on the API. New profiles get this value by default.

    - `PASSTHROUGH("passthrough")`

    Details about the entity this profile represents, as the platform states them; not verified by Anthropic. Present under the `user-profiles-2026-09-04` beta header, with every field present and `null` until the platform supplies a value; the earlier beta headers serve `reference_id` as the top-level `external_id`, and `user-profiles-2026-08-18` serves `onboarded_at` as `external_user_onboarded_at`.

    - `Optional<AccountStatus> accountStatus`

      The status of the entity's account on the platform: `active`, `suspended` or `blocked`. `null` until the platform supplies one.
