# Admit Account

`POST /api/v1/internal/self-serve/admit`

Admit an address, or attach it to the setup it already has.

Re-entrant: an account already ready, in flight, or waitlisted comes back as
it stands rather than starting a second setup.

## Request body

- AdmitAccountRequest
  - `email` string, email, required

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- AdmitAccountResponse
  - `account_id` string, uuid, required
  - `state` 'pending' | 'waitlisted' | 'preparing' | 'ready' | 'failed', required — Where a self-serve account sits between signup and a usable workspace. ``PREPARING`` and ``READY`` hold a seat against the admission cap; the other three do not. Setup consumes capacity from the moment it starts rather than when it finishes, so a burst of in-flight setups cannot collectively pass the cap. See ``SEAT_HOLDING_STATES``.
  - `workflow_id` string, nullable, required

## Other responses

- `422` — Validation Error
