Policy-level charges

An account can have two levels of charges: account-level charges and policy-level charges. A policy-level charge is a charge that is owned by one of the account's policy's policy periods (such as a premium charge or tax charge for a given policy period). For more information on account-level charges, see Account-level charges.

Use the following endpoints to query for policy-level charges.

  • GET /billing/v1/accounts/{accountId}/policies/{policyId}/policy-periods/{policyPeriodId}/charges

  • GET /billing/v1/charges/{chargeId}

From an application design standpoint, charges are associated with accounts and policy periods. But charges are considered to be a top-level entity. Thus, to get a policy period's charges, you use an endpoint that has the account as the parent. But to get details about a specific charge, you use an endpoint where the charge itself is the parent.

For example, the following request queries for the policy-level charges for policy period bc:909 for policy bc:808, which is owned by account bc:707. The response specifies two charges: a premium charge for $1200 and a tax charge for $50.
