# Generating Estimate Links

Generate Estimate Links for your program

Here’s a cleaner and more structured version of the steps you provided for interacting with the Cognito Identity Pool and making an API request:

***

#### **Environment Configuration**

| **Environment** | **Identity Pool ID**                             |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| **Production**  | `us-east-1:50d520ef-0cd0-45c6-8798-33e0163fcde7` |
| **Sandbox**     | `us-east-1:16a18d1f-dab5-4b76-a836-3ed99a37afd9` |

***

#### **Steps to Authenticate and Make a Request**

**Step 1: Get an Unauthenticated Identity ID**

Use the `aws cognito-identity get-id` command to retrieve an unauthenticated identity ID from the identity pool.

**Command:**

```bash
bashCopy codeaws cognito-identity get-id --identity-pool-id us-east-1:16a18d1f-dab5-4b76-a836-3ed99a37afd9
```

**Step 2: Exchange Identity ID for an OpenID Token**

Use the `aws cognito-identity get-open-id-token` command to exchange the identity ID for an OpenID token.

**Command:**

```bash
bashCopy codeaws cognito-identity get-open-id-token --identity-id "us-east-1:45d3ecbe-5ec1-c35d-9818-5a1707fa1158"
```

The response will include a `Token` value. This token is valid for approximately **10 minutes**.

**Step 3: Use the OpenID Token to Make an API Request**

Include the `Token` value as the `Authorization` header in your API request.

**Command:**

```bash
bashCopy codecurl --location 'https://api.sandbox.authenticinsurance.com/estimate' \
--header 'Authorization: ${TOKEN}' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "product": ["GENERAL_LIABILITY"],
    "revenue": 1000000,
    "state": "OH",
    "class_description": "Office Cleaning Service"
}'
```

***

#### **Key Notes**

* The **OpenID token** is valid for \~10 minutes. Ensure to refresh it as needed.
* Replace the `Identity Pool ID` and API endpoint according to your environment:
  * Sandbox: `us-east-1:16a18d1f-dab5-4b76-a836-3ed99a37afd9`
  * Production: `us-east-1:50d520ef-0cd0-45c6-8798-33e0163fcde7`

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://authentic.gitbook.io/authentic-docs/go-to-market/generating-estimate-links.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
