## List Position Instructions

`v1.positions.get_position_instructions(intaccount_id, PositionGetPositionInstructionsParams**kwargs)  -> PositionGetPositionInstructionsResponse`

**get** `/v1/accounts/{account_id}/positions/instructions`

Returns the current lifecycle state of the account's position

### Parameters

  Limit results to a single contract. Accepts the instrument id or the
  OSI symbol.

### Returns

    - `id: str`

      Server-assigned id. Used as the path parameter on cancel.

    - `account_id: int`

      Account the instruction belongs to.

    - `instruction_id: str`

      Caller-supplied idempotency key echoed from the submit request; the
      server-assigned fallback when none was supplied.

    - `instruction_type: PositionInstructionType`

      The action this instruction requests.

      - `"EXERCISE"`

      - `"DO_NOT_EXERCISE"`

      - `"CONTRARY_EXERCISE"`

    - `instrument_id: str`

      Identifier of the options contract this instruction acts on.

    - `quantity: str`

      Number of contracts included in the instruction.

    - `status: PositionInstructionStatus`

      Current lifecycle status.

      - `"SENT"`

      - `"ACCEPTED"`

      - `"REJECTED"`

      - `"ENGINE_REJECTED"`

      - `"CANCEL_REQUESTED"`

      - `"CANCEL_FAILED"`

      - `"UNKNOWN"`

    - `symbol: str`

      Options symbol (OSI) for display.

    - `accepted_quantity: Optional[str]`

      Number of contracts accepted by the clearing venue. Populated once
      the instruction reaches `ACCEPTED`.

    - `created_at: Optional[datetime]`

      When the instruction was first accepted by the service.

    - `rejection_reason: Optional[str]`

      Human-readable explanation populated on any non-success terminal
      status — `REJECTED`, `ENGINE_REJECTED`, or `CANCEL_FAILED`. On a
      `207 Multi-Status` batch submit the top-level `error` field
      summarizes the batch; per-row detail continues to live here.

    - `updated_at: Optional[datetime]`

      When the instruction's lifecycle state last changed.

### Example

```python
from clear_street import ClearStreet

client = ClearStreet(
    api_key="My API Key",
