The response follows the standard format, with a successful result containing the following fields:

FieldTypeDescription
deposit_authorizedBooleanWhether the specified source account is authorized to send payments directly to the destination account. If true, either the destination account does not require Deposit Authorization or the source account is preauthorized.
destination_accountString - AddressThe destination account specified in the request.
ledger_hashString(May be omitted) The identifying hash of the ledger that was used to generate this response.
ledger_indexNumber - Ledger Index(May be omitted) The ledger index of the ledger version that was used to generate this response.
ledger_current_indexNumber - Ledger Index(May be omitted) The ledger index of the current in-progress ledger version, which was used to generate this response.
source_accountString - AddressThe source account specified in the request.
validatedBoolean(May be omitted) If true, the information comes from a validated ledger version.

Note: A deposit_authorized status of true does not guarantee that a payment can be sent from the specified source to the specified destination. For example, the destination account may not have a trust line for the specified currency, or there may not be enough liquidity to deliver a payment.
