Paxos Profiles API is one of 43 APIs that [Paxos](https://apis.io/providers/paxos/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Profiles. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification.

Profiles hold asset balances, and every Paxos transaction is on a particular profile. Depending on your integration type, Profiles may be used to reflect both corporate balances or individual user balances. There are two types of Profiles: - `DEFAULT` Profiles are system-generated. - `NORMAL` Profiles are created using the [Create Profile](#operation/CreateProfile) endpoint and are the only type of Profile you can create.
