# Get Balance Sheet

`GET /ca/api/get_balance_sheet`

Returns ending account balances for each period between `start_date` and `end_date` (both inclusive), split by `cadence`. This is the recommended endpoint for balance sheet ending balances.

**How the date range works:** `start_date` is *not* the date balances are calculated *from*. Account balances are always accumulated from the beginning of time through each period end. `start_date`, `end_date`, and `cadence` only determine how the report is split into periods (columns).

**Retained earnings:** included as its own row.

**Breakdowns:** the report can be broken down or filtered by entity, department, and tag dimensions via `group_by` (pass `group` with a tag group ID when grouping by tag).
