# GetMasterAccount
<a name="API_GetMasterAccount"></a>

This method is deprecated. Instead, use `GetAdministratorAccount`.

The Security Hub CSPM console continues to use `GetMasterAccount`. It will eventually change to use `GetAdministratorAccount`. Any IAM policies that specifically control access to this function must continue to use `GetMasterAccount`. You should also add `GetAdministratorAccount` to your policies to ensure that the correct permissions are in place after the console begins to use `GetAdministratorAccount`.

Provides the details for the Security Hub CSPM administrator account for the current member account.

Can be used by both member accounts that are managed using Organizations and accounts that were invited manually.
