briza-insurance / air-starter

A starter application for quick setup of Briza Air's components and Briza API server-to-server communication.

Air starter - Vanilla JavaScript

A plug-and-play starter application built using Briza Air's Questionnaire component on the frontend and Node/Express JS on the backend for server-to-server communication hitting the Briza API.

Who's this for?

Use this application as a starting point in building your own commercial insurance experience if you have received your credentials (Briza API key + Brokerage ID).

Requirements

1. Your Briza API key + Brokerage ID. This is required in order to make requests to Briza's API and return a question set.
2. A Google Maps API key. This is optional, and can be used to automatically populate suggestions from Google Places during address lookup.

Step 1: Initial installation

With recent versions of Node.js and NPM on your machine, run:

npm install

Step 2: Set your environment variables

Copy .env.example to .env and paste in values for:

• BRIZA_API_URL: API URL address provided by Briza

• BRIZA_API_KEY: Your private API key

• BROKERAGE_ID: The unique ID of the brokerage

Optional: Set a Google Maps API key (Optional)

• Set your googleMapsApiKey in index.html. This is needed to automatically populate suggestions from Google Places during address lookup.

Step 3: Running your application

Once your environment variables are set up, run:

npm start

Running the above command will start both a server on http://localhost:3000 and a frontend application on http://localhost:3700.

If the above steps have been followed successfully, you should now see Briza's Pre-application questions rendering in your browser.
