Introduction

WinsurTech AL3 API makes it very easy to accomplish the following:

Download Files from the IVANS mailbox
Convert AL3 files to JSON/CSV
Create AL3 files from CSV/JSON templates
Extract data and attachments from Claim Files

The API endpoints work for both Policy Transaction files and Direct Bill Commission Files. In addition, there are endpoints to fetch all the valid values (according to ACORD) for code lists and map NAIC code to the Carrier.

Download Files from the IVANS mailbox set of endpoints allow users to log in to IVANS with their respective mailbox credentials (IVANS Secret Key, IVANS Client Id, Mailbox Account Name, Mailbox User Id, and Mailbox Password). After login, users can fetch the details of all the files available in their respective mailbox account and then fetch each available file from the mailbox.

Convert CSV/JSON to ACORD AL3 Endpoints take a CSV/JSON file as an input, and convert it into an ACORD AL3 File or DAT file. There is one endpoint to generate template for different Lines of Business and another endpoint, to convert the generated templates into an AL3 file. Users are required to fill in the available values in the “Value” column and upload the CSV/JSON back into our AL3 Creation endpoint to create the AL3 file. It is not required to fill the values for the rows that are not applicable in your case.

Code List endpoints and Carrier Name endpoints are available to help the users further while preparing the CSV/JSON. These endpoints turn out to be helpful for users while preparing the CSV/JSON.

The Code List Names endpoint generates all the code list names as a response and contains al3_reference_id along with a description. Users can copy the reference Id from there, paste that ID in the Code List Values endpoint and use the required code from the output to add it to the Value column in the CSV/JSON Template for the AL3 file.

The Carrier Details endpoint will help the users to get the details related to the Carrier. The generated output contains the Carrier Name and NAIC Code for the Carrier that matches the substring entered.

Claims/ACORD XML to JSON Endpoints make it feasible to extract data from the Claims File into JSON output format and to extract images and documents embedded inside the Claim files. Claims files are downloaded from the users, respective, IVANS mailboxes.

How to view AL3 file contents on UI?

To view the AL3 files on screen, users can use WinsurTech AL3 Viewer or WinsurTech Web Viewer.

Links:

WinsurTech AL3 Viewer: https://winsurtech.com/al3-desktop-viewer

WinsurTech Web Viewer: https://products.winsurtech.com

Some important points:

AL3 / DAT files are created by Carriers and they may have any extension although the most common extensions are. DAT and .AL3. Sometimes the files may have extensions like .001, .002, etc, or even. ZIP. Our API examines each file, irrespective of its extension.
AL3 format is ACORD’s proprietary format to pack Policy and Direct Bill commission data into this format and the files are sent from Carriers to their agencies (mostly view IVANS).
Although Claims Download files also have. DAT or.AL3 extension but these files are in ACORD XML format not in AL3 format. Claims data is parsed by a separate product of ours. Contact us at contact@winsurtech.com for that.
AL3 files for Policies can contain a variable amount of data. Some files contain only a single policy but some files may contain a large number of policies. Each policy in an AL3 file may be of a different Line of Business.
Most of the AL3 files are in KBs rather than MBs. But "initial load" files from IVANS can be larger, like 2 MB or more. Our main /conversion endpoint can convert AL3 files of any size up to 1 MB. For a larger file, use our /callBack-conversion endpoint.
Files with 10 to 200 KB size can be converted in less than 5 seconds but files that are 200+Kb and up to 1 Mb can take anywhere between 5 seconds to 40 seconds for conversion depending on the exact file size and traffic.
/ callBack-conversion is not a real-time endpoint. It converts the data in the background and POSTS the response back to the CALLBACK URL you provide for your application. Make sure the URL works, is open for external traffic and you have written the code to receive JSON and process that.
/ callBack-conversion can be used with any sized file. There are no restrictions related to file size in it.

B. AL3 Creator API

Introduction
AL3 Creator API takes a CSV/JSON file as input and converts it to an ACORD AL3 file or DAT file. There is one endpoint to generate a CSV/JSON template for different lines of business and another endpoint to convert this template to an AL3 file. All you have to do is fill in available values in the “Value” column and upload the CSV/json back into our AL3 Creation endpoint to create the AL3 file. No need to fill values for the rows not applicable in your case. There are Code list endpoints and Carrier Name endpoints to help you further during the process of preparing the CSV/JSON.

AL3 Creation Process is comprised of two steps:

Template Generation & AL3 Creation: By using the endpoint (Template Generation) available in this collection users can get the CSV/JSON template for the Line of Business relevant to your Policy Transaction (or for DB Commission). Each CSV/JSON template contains one row per element (like for Policy Number, Effective Date, etc). Templates are available in a shorter & simpler format of important elements only, as well as in FULL format (which means all the possible elements for the LOB are shown in the template). You can also specify the count of transactions for the passed LOB while generating the template (by default it is 1).

Create AL3 File: Add values in the template that you have against the matching rows in the template. If you have fewer data fill in only that and leave the other rows blank. Then upload the data-filled CSV/JSON to the AL3 Creation endpoint and the resulting AL3 file comes back in the output. Your programmer can easily access the AL3 content in the JSON response and save it into a file with the extension of .AL3 or .DAT. If you test the API in Postman you can manually copy and paste the content (excluding double quotes) into notepad and save it.AL3 or. DAT file extension to test.

2. Create AL3 Files from CSV/JSON

Endpoint Information

User Authentication: Each Endpoint needs the USER_SECRET/ACCESS_TOKEN parameter in the HEADER while making the request

a. Template Generation & AL3 Creation

Generate Template

Request Method: GET
Endpoint: BaseURL /template

Description:
This endpoint enables the users to get the Template for their required LOB. For Instance, if a user has to create an AL3 file for an AUTOP transaction, pass the AUTOP LOB, and Pass the JSON/CSV in Template type for Generating the Template. But users can pass any value for the Transaction Count. A user can pass a variable count of up to 50 if he or she has to pack data of multiple transactions in the same AL3 File. AL3 File also contains some Header Groups which surround the actual data. If users are not comfortable with the AL3 structure, keep the headgroups parameter to ‘No’ as our code can automatically add the header groups & elements with blank values. If users want to set data in header group elements also then pass it as Yes. By default, the value is 'No'. By default, the full format is set to false since we give you a shorter simpler template of the most common elements only for a particular LOB. AL3 File can contain several hundreds of elements and it may be confusing for your team but if you want the full format pass full_format=yes.

Description

Fill data in the template received from our Template API call (fill in whatever data you have and leave the rest of it blank, do not change the template columns or rows). One CSV template can also contain data from multiple transactions but not from different LOBs. For packing multiple transactions of different LOBs in the same AL3 file, upload a zip file containing all the CSV files packed in this ZIP. You can also optionally upload a HEADER file that contains the header groups only which are needed only once even if you pack multiple transactions in the same AL3 file. For getting the template (CSV file) for the HEADER groups use the LOB = HEADER_GROUPS with the Generate Template Endpoint. Upload the data-filled CSV file to this API endpoint and save the output contained in double quotes (“ “) to a notepad file on your disk with a .AL3 or .DAT extension.

Note: If you want to omit the question marks from the element then use {Blank} as the element value in the CSV file.

JSON To AL3

Request Method: POST

Endpoint: BaseURL /json-to-al3

Description

Fill data in the template received from Generate Template endpoint (fill in whatever data you have and leave the rest of it blank, do not change the structure of the json). The keys of the json should not be changed , only the values should be changed. Json template can also contain data from multiple transactions but not from different LOBs. For packing multiple transactions of different LOBs in the same AL3 file, upload a zip file containing all the json files packed in this zip. Upload the data-filled json .zip file (this endpoint accepts only zip files containing only json template) to this “JSON to AL3” endpoint and Save the output contained in double quotes (“ “) to a notepad file on your disk with a .AL3 or .DAT extension.

For generating the template for the HEADER groups use the LOB = HEADER_GROUPS in the Generate Template Endpoint and fill the JSON in the template_type parameter to generate the header group template for the JSON. To convert the file into an AL3 file, zip the generated header group template and JSON templates into a single zip file. If we want a separate header group for separate JSON files in such a case we will zip them separately and then pack all the zip into a single zip file. One zip file can contain only one header group template. For instance, If we want a separate header group for one JSON, a separate header group for two JSON files, and a separate header group for multiple JSON files. In that case, we will zip the header group template and one JSON file into a single zip file, zip the header group template, and two JSON files into a single zip file, and Zip the header group template and Multiple JSON into a single zip file. Now pack all three zip files into one single zip and upload it on Json to AL3 Endpoint to convert it into AL3 file.

Note: If you want to omit the question marks from the element then use {Blank} as the element value in the JSON file.
