# Quote Flow

## Summary

Once the Customer has provided the necessary information on your front end you will send a single `POST` request to the `/quotes` endpoint. That request should contain the relevant Rating Factors, limits, deductibles, Customer data, and some time-based attributes like when the Policy or Coverage should go into effect and when it should be terminated. Assuming that the request was formatted correctly, a Quote record will be created, or modified in the case of a Customer updating (via `PATCH`) previously submitted requests, in Boost’s system. That Quote will be returned in a quote state defined by the status field.
