# Get your organization representative

> The person a partner bank opens your GHS virtual accounts against. In production `representative` is `null` until an owner or admin sets one, so check it before creating a GHS virtual account.

In **sandbox** you never get `null`: without one, sandbox uses your organization owner's name with placeholder `phone` and `idNumber`, marked `status: "sandbox_default"`. Requires the `collections:read` scope.
