Create job

Create a job for a customer with line items and, optionally, a schedule and a dispatched team member.

POST https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/housecall-pro/customers/{customer_id}/jobs

write Confirm

Creates a job for a customer and an address with service line items, notes and tags. Leave schedule out to save it unscheduled. When you schedule it, you must also dispatch at least one team member, the same rule as the New Job page. The call returns the job and the invoice that goes with it. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
