# Download a statement as PDF

GET https://%7BYour_Space_Name%7D.signalwire.com/api/space/billing_statement.pdf

Redirects to the stored PDF of one month's statement. The response is a `302` whose
`Location` header is the download URL, so your client must follow redirects.

Only a closed month has a PDF. The current month is rejected with
`pdf_requires_a_closed_month`; check `formats` in
[List statement periods](/docs/apis/rest/space/billing/list-billing-statements) before
requesting one.

#### Permissions

Authenticate with a [Personal access token](/docs/apis/authorization#personal-access-tokens) whose holder is an owner or admin of the space. A project API token is not accepted on this endpoint, and a Personal access token has no scopes: the holder's role in the space is the whole authorization decision.

Reference: https://signalwire.com/docs/apis/rest/space/billing/get-billing-statement-pdf

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (basic auth, required) — Personal access token authentication for space-wide administration. Send HTTP Basic auth with an empty username and the Personal access token as the password. A Personal access token carries your own authority rather than a project's: it is created from your user menu in the Dashboard, is prefixed `pat_`, and has no scopes. The holder must be an owner or admin of the space named by the subdomain, and the token acts only on that space. Example: ``` Authorization: Basic base64(:pat_...) ```

## Request

### Query parameters

- `month` (string, required) — The calendar month, as `YYYY-MM`. A month before the space existed is rejected with `month_precedes_space_creation`, and a future month with `month_is_in_the_future`.

## Errors

### 401 Unauthorized Error

The credential is missing, unknown, or revoked; its holder is not a member of the space in the subdomain; the member is not an owner or admin; or billing for this space is not managed in the space itself, which is the case for a space purchased through a cloud marketplace and for a suspended or deactivated space. A space deactivated for nonpayment keeps the billing endpoints so that its outstanding balance can be settled. The body is the plain text `Unauthorized`. An unverified space instead receives the JSON body `{"message": "Please validate a phone number to access your account."}` on every endpoint under `/api/space`.

- `message` (string, required) — States that a phone number must be validated for the space before it can use the API.

### 422 Unprocessable Entity Error

`month` is not formatted `YYYY-MM` (`invalid_month`), is before the month the space was created (`month_precedes_space_creation`), or is after the current month (`month_is_in_the_future`); or the month has not closed yet, so no PDF exists for it (`pdf_requires_a_closed_month`).

- `errors` (list of object, required) — List of validation errors.
  - `type` (string, required) — The category of error.
  - `code` (string, required) — A specific error code.
  - `message` (string, required) — A description of what caused the error.
  - `url` (string, required) — A link to documentation about this error.
  - `attribute` (string, optional, nullable) — The request parameter that caused the error, if applicable.

### 500 Internal Server Error

An internal server error occurred.

- `error` (enum, required)
  - Allowed values: `Internal Server Error`

### 502 Bad Gateway Error

An upstream billing or usage reporting service was unavailable. The body is empty; retry later.

- `any`
