Binding

Submit the bind request to Hedge for placement

Changed on

The wizard's own submit, same validation: the request moves from drafted to submitted and Hedge places the bind with the carrier (your brokerage's approval settings decide whether a Hedge reviewer looks first). While assumptions remain unconfirmed this answers 409 assumptions_unconfirmed — pass attest_assumptions in the body to confirm and submit in one call. Surplus-lines placements need a diligent search on file (422 says so); direct-bill card-payment lanes are portal-only (422). A bound event follows on the events feed and webhooks once the carrier binds.
