    Run your code

    Save this file to your machine and run it: 

    bash create-subaccount.sh

    Try it out

    When you run the code you create a new subaccount of the parent account.

    NOTE: This code snippet will create a subaccount that has a credit and balance facility shared with the parent account. If you want to create a subaccount that does not have a credit and balance shared with the parent then you need to set use_primary_account_balance to false when you create the subaccount.
