Introduction

Clear Estimates provides a hosted estimate creation flow for API users! This is a great way to get started with the API and including estimates into your customer’s workflow.

Getting Started

Step 1 — Authentication & Account Set Up

Authentication is handled via a basic API key included in the URL. API Keys can be obtained by talking to a Clear Estimates sales representative.

API keys can be cycled at any time via your account UI.

Step 2 — Base URL

Sandbox

https://**estimates-sandbox**.clearestimates.com/**build**/?api_key={YOUR API KEY}

Production

https://**estimates**.clearestimates.com/**build**/?api_key={YOUR API KEY}

Step 3 — Custom URLs

You can also use your own custom domain to host this estimate flow wherever you would like. Just update your CNAME records with your domain host.
