openapi: 3.2.0

  version: 1.2.1
  title: Emerge Public Awards API
  description: 'The Emerge public API provides partner developers with access to core capabilities of the Emerge platform.


    The current version of the API is v1.2.1. This API will evolve as the features in Emerge''s product evolve.


    # Get Started


    The Emerge API is a ''restish'' API and is designed to allow you to work with objects using familiar HTTP verbs like

    * POST

    * PUT

    * DELETE

    * GET


    All production level API requests are made to:

    <br />`https://api.emergemarket.io`



    The testing sandbox is available during development and for testing:

    <br />`https://demo-api.emergemarket.dev/`


    ## Compatibility Policy


    Emerge APIs are versioned using a prefix in the endpoint URL. Within an API version, we only make backward-compatible changes. This mean that when a provider integrates with our REST API, the API will continue to work until the version is deprecated. If we have to create a change that is not compatible with the current version, a new version will be created.


    ### Non-Breaking Changes


    * Adding additional optional fields on the API request.

    * Adding additional fields on the API response.

    * Adding an HTTP method to an API.

    * Adding optional headers.

    * Adding additional accepted enumerated values.

    * Changing Error Response descriptions.

    * Added Rate Limits.


    ### Breaking Changes


    * Removing or renaming an API method or endpoint.

    * Removing or renaming existing API request or response fields.

    * Removing or renaming enumerated values.

    * Changing the Error Response values.


    ### Deprecation Policy


    * Emerge will continue to support deprecated APIs for 1 year.

    * Documentation will also be updated and integrating providers will be notified via email when a version or endpoint is being deprecated.


    # Workflows

    The Emerge API is designed to support two primary workflows for a shipper organization: An opportunity-to-tender workflow and an opportunity-to-award workflow.


    ## Opportunity-to-tender


    The opportunity-to-tender is the most common workflow of an integrating system. In this workflow, the Emerge system is used to source the live capacity as well as to tender through Emerge to that live capacity. The benefit of this workflow is that all information, from opportunity through tender and finally tracking is maintained in the Emerge system. The basic steps of this workflow include:


    1. Create an Opportunity.


    2. Post to the shipper''s (your) marketplace.


    3. Receive options from carriers. Retrieval is achieved through a webhook published by you for receiving option events.


    4. Tender to a carrier.


    5. Get tracking updates through webhook.


    ## Opportunity-to-award

    The opportunity-to-award workflow supports customers who are using the Emerge platform in conjunction with their TMS. In this workflow, Emerge is used as a capacity provider while the TMS is used on the execution side. The basic steps of this workflow include:


    1. Create an opportunity.


    2. Post to the shipper''s (your) marketplace.


    3. Receive options from carriers. Retrieval is achieved through a webhook published by you for receiving option events.


    4. Award to a carrier.


    Note that awarding to the carrier will automatically close the opportunity, notify the carrier that they "won" the bidding and notify the remaining carriers that they did not win the bidding.


    The opportunity-to-award workflow requires that the customer''s TMS tenders to the winning carrier. This happens outside of the Emerge system.
