      summary: Avalara CreateCertExpressInvitation
      description: 'Creates an invitation for a customer to self-report certificates using the CertExpress website.


        This invitation is delivered by your choice of method, or you can present a hyperlink to the user

        directly in your connector. Your customer will be redirected to https://app.certexpress.com/ where

        they can follow a step-by-step guide to enter information about their exemption certificates. The

        certificates entered will be recorded and automatically linked to their customer record.


        The CertExpress website is available for customers to use at any time.

        Using CertExpress with this API will ensure that your certificates are automatically linked correctly into

        your company so that they can be used for tax exemptions.


        Before you can use any exemption certificates endpoints, you must set up your company for exemption certificate data storage.

        Companies that do not have this storage system set up will see `CertCaptureNotConfiguredError` when they call exemption

        certificate related APIs. To check if this is set up for a company, call `GetCertificateSetup`. To request setup of exemption

        certificate storage for this company, call `RequestCertificateSetup`.
