Is there a way to display the Account alias, instead of the Account number?

Thanks for verifying.

Wealth-Lab uses/shows the Account ID communicated by the API and there's no mention of "Alias" in the API doc. If there were a way to change the account reference to be an Alias with some TWS preference (I can't find one), then we'd display the Alias.

Thank you Cone!

The support is already great as it is: linking the accounts will save me a lot of time daily by being able to target the right account without having to play with multiple TWS instances.

Regarding the Account Alias, I found something in the API documentation:
https://interactivebrokers.github.io/tws-api/interfaceIBApi_1_1EWrapper.html



However, it seems to be related to FA (financial advisor) accounts; mine are not, but perhaps IB, technically, treats them like that.
