At a high level, when integrating with #insurance carrier's "rating API" there are a number of things to take into consideration.... rate call depth, line of business, which U.S. states to enable. Rate Call (RC) Depth:
1. RC .5
Pass- insured name, address/vehicle
Receive - default coverages and premium indication

2. RC 1
Pass - Coverage selections and basic u/wing questions
Receive - Credit based quote with premium

Agencies are clamoring for "open APIs" from #insurance carriers, insurtechs, incumbent AMS systems, etc.... but very few are ready or able to effectively integrate. Here's our checklist when working with a new API partner. (P.S. we only work with carriers who have open APIs) 1. API documentation for all Personal Lines P&C (schema, example requests, example payloads)

Business/SME: Responsible for gathering documentation and placing in shared folders.

Tech: Responsible for verifying documentation contains details needed to do integration.
