<Tip>
  **Type-Safe Instruction Access**: Since `deposit_instructions` is a
  discriminated union, we recommend using the SDK's built-in type guards to
  safely narrow the type: - `isUSAccountDetails(instr)`: For USD (ACH/Wire)
  accounts. - `isIBANAccountDetails(instr)`: For EUR (SEPA) accounts. -
  `isInternationalWireAccountDetails(instr)`: For USD (SWIFT) accounts.
</Tip>

## Examples

```typescript theme={null}
import { isUSAccountDetails, isIBANAccountDetails } from "@tolbel/align";

const account = await align.virtualAccounts.get(customerId, "va_123");

// Use type-safe helper functions for narrowing
if (isUSAccountDetails(account.deposit_instructions)) {
  console.log(`US Account: ${account.deposit_instructions.us.account_number}`);
} else if (isIBANAccountDetails(account.deposit_instructions)) {
  console.log(`IBAN: ${account.deposit_instructions.iban.iban_number}`);
}
```
