Underwriting Company Details on Policy Summary

Like many auto insurers, Root uses a number of subsidiary companies to underwrite policies across many markets. While the underwriting company was always available to customers in their policy documents, the particular company and their NAIC number underwriting a given policy is now available to our partners via the get policy endpoint.

What's Changed

When a GET is called to the bind_api/v3/policies/policy/{policy_id} endpoint, the underwritingCompany property is now available with optional string attributes display_name and naic. A reduced sample response may be something like this:

{
  "policy": {
    ...,
    "underwritingCompany": {
      "displayName": "Root Insurance Company",
      "naic": "10974"
    },
    ...
  },
  ...
}

How to use it

No further configuration is required! All consumers of v3 get policy endpoint will receive this extra data.
