This object represents a partner relationship between two Account records. An AccountPartner record is created automatically when a Partner record is created for a partner relationship between two accounts.

Creating an Account-Account Partner Relationship

When you create a partner relationship between two accounts (when you create a Partner record and specify the AccountFromId), the API automatically creates two AccountPartner records, one for the forward relationship and one for the reverse. For example, if you create a Partner relationship with “Acme, Inc.” as the AccountFromId and “Acme Consulting” as the AccountToId, the API automatically creates two AccountPartner records:

The forward relationship AccountPartner with “Acme, Inc.” as the AccountFromId and “Acme Consulting” as the AccountToId.
The reverse relationship AccountPartner with “Acme Consulting” as the AccountFromId and “Acme, Inc.” as the AccountToId.
The value of the Role field in the reverse relationship AccountPartner is set to the PartnerRole record ReverseRole value associated with the value of the Role field in the forward relationship AccountPartner.

This mapping allows the API to manage the records and their relationships efficiently.
