Starting New Application Forms

This section covers how an agent creates a new application form from your custom terminal. If agents have restricted permissions, your Quote Start service will create application forms for users.

Prerequisites

• Your application has initialized the Bold Penguin SDK. To learn more, review how to initialize the SDK.
• The user is already logged in. To learn more, review how to authenticate agents.

Creating the application form and updating the store

To create and load the application form for the agent, your custom terminal will:

• Get the current SDK config
• Send a request to create a new application form
• Dispatch a Redux store action to load the application form

import {
  ApplicationForm,
  getPartnerEngineConfig,
  loadSingleApplicationForm,
  getStore
} from '@boldpenguin/sdk';

const newApplicationForm = async () => {
  const store = getStore();
  const config = getPartnerEngineConfig(store.getState());

  const response = await ApplicationForm.createApplicationForm({}, config);
  const newApplicationFormId = response?.parsedBody?.id;
  
  const action = loadSingleApplicationForm({
    config,
    id: newApplicationFormId
  });
  
  store.dispatch(action);
  return newApplicationFormId;
}
