Getting Started
Step 1. Create an API key
To create an API key, you must request to create a user account in Close Connect and in BlueLink. When that's complete, first sign in to your account in Close Connect, select the API I wish to use and take note of the API Key and API Secret. Then sign into BlueLink, go to your user profile page and create an API Key, then copy and paste the API Key and API Secret from Close Connect to relevant fields.
INFO
When creating a new account in BlueLink, if you receive an "Account Pending" error, please contact us with your email address, name, and company details. We will be in touch.

Step 2. Submit an application
Submit your first application by populating an ApplicationModel object and posting it to the Submit Application endpoint.
If the data is correct, and there are no validation errors, the application will be immediately sent to the lender for underwriting. If there are validation errors, it can be fixed in one of two ways:
- the request may be retried if these errors are fixed, or;
- the application may be opened in the Close Connect UI by an authorized user, edited to fix the validation errors, and submitted manually.
INFO
An application can be owned by a user different than the user who created the application. In this case, both the creating user and the owner can edit/update the application.

Step 3. Receive case updates
Once an application has been created successfully, you may monitor the status of the case with the Get Application Status method, or by subscribing to the StatusChanged webhook event.
