      1 .. http:post:: [/instances/$INSTANCE]/private/accounts
      2 
      3   This is used to add an account to an instance.
      4 
      5   **Required permission:** ``accounts-write``
      6 
      7   **Request:**
      8 
      9   The request must have an `AccountAddDetails` body.
     10 
     11   **Response:**
     12 
     13   :http:statuscode:`200 Ok`:
     14     Adding the account was successful, we return the salt selected by the backend and the resulting wire hash in an `AccountAddResponse`.
     15   :http:statuscode:`202 Accepted`:
     16     2FA is required for this operation, usually to validate the
     17     email and/or phone numbers registered for the instance.
     18     This returns the `ChallengeResponse`. @since **v21**
     19   :http:statuscode:`404 Not found`:
     20     The merchant instance is unknown or it is not in our data.
     21   :http:statuscode:`409 Conflict`:
     22     The provided information is inconsistent with the current state of the instance.
     23     Usually this means we already have this account, but with conflicting credit facade information.
     24     Inactive accounts can be reactivated using this method even if the
     25     credit facade information differs from the previous state.

     54       // ``merchant_pub`` values). When changing the ``extra_subject``,
