# Account validity API
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This API allows a server administrator to manage the validity of an account. To
 | 
						|
use it, you must enable the account validity feature (under
 | 
						|
`account_validity`) in Synapse's configuration.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an `access_token`
 | 
						|
for a server admin: see [Admin API](../usage/administration/admin_api/).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Renew account
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This API extends the validity of an account by as much time as configured in the
 | 
						|
`period` parameter from the `account_validity` configuration.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The API is:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
POST /_synapse/admin/v1/account_validity/validity
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
with the following body:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```json
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
    "user_id": "<user ID for the account to renew>",
 | 
						|
    "expiration_ts": 0,
 | 
						|
    "enable_renewal_emails": true
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`expiration_ts` is an optional parameter and overrides the expiration date,
 | 
						|
which otherwise defaults to now + validity period.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`enable_renewal_emails` is also an optional parameter and enables/disables
 | 
						|
sending renewal emails to the user. Defaults to true.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The API returns with the new expiration date for this account, as a timestamp in
 | 
						|
milliseconds since epoch:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```json
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
    "expiration_ts": 0
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
