# Stats

### Overview

The Stats API encompasses a suite of endpoints tailored for accommodation providers to manage their compliance with local statistical reporting requirements. This service allows users to link their statistical accounts (specific to their country, city, or region) and automate the process of data transmission, ensuring that they meet legal obligations efficiently and accurately

  Enables users to access detailed information about a specific stats account, including credentials, linked properties, and submission history.
