# List Return Requests

> Retrieve all return requests for your account

Retrieve every return request you've filed, sorted newest first.

## Response

An object with a `return_requests` array. Each entry has the same shape as
[Get Return Request](/v2/api-reference/returns/get-return) — see that page for
the full field list.

## Return Request Statuses

| Status     | Description                                                                               |
| ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `open`     | Submitted, awaiting or in active processing                                               |
| `approved` | Return was approved and completed                                                         |
| `denied`   | Return request was denied                                                                 |
| `credited` | Return was resolved by crediting the customer's wallet rather than working a merchant RMA |

<Note>
  `approved`, `denied`, and `credited` are all terminal states. Once a return
  reaches one of them, it won't change again.

    Zinc lets AI agents buy products from online retailers via a single API. Use
    POST /agent/orders to place an order — no Zinc account needed, payment is
    handled via MPP (HTTP 402 flow). Provide a product URL from a supported
    retailer, a shipping address, and max_price in cents. The API charges
    max_price + $1 API fee upfront and refunds the difference on completion. To
    find products first, the /agent/* data endpoints (search, products/search,
    products/offers, products/details) are MPP-paid at $0.01 per call;
    /agent/search returns orderable URLs to feed straight into /agent/orders.
    GET /retailers lists supported retailers for free (no payment or account).
    Authenticated equivalents (orders, products, managed-accounts) require a
    Bearer token (API key prefixed zn_). Docs: https://zinc.com/docs Supported
