Output

data is the account switched to, plus previous (the account that was active before). Local command — no chain block.

Field	Type	Meaning
previous	string	Account id that was active before
accountId	string	Now-active account id
label	string	Account label
type	string	seed / privateKey / watch / ledger
index	number | null	HD derivation index; null for non-HD accounts
active	boolean	Always true (just made active)
addresses	object	One entry per family the account can produce: tron (base58) and/or evm (0x, EIP-55 checksummed)
seedId	string	Owning seed wallet id (seed accounts only)
derivationPath	null	Always null, deliberately — use takes no master password, so it cannot tell an old TRON path from a current one without opening the seed; derive and backup report verified paths
family	string	Chain family this account is bound to — single-family accounts (watch, ledger) only
path	string	The account's derivation path on the device (ledger accounts only)
