Result: manual

You can complete Ignition sessions manually by selecting “My carrier is not listed” on the carrier selection page and then uploading any document of the allowed types (defaults to pdf, jpg, jpeg, png).
Your Axle client will be configured in the sandbox to mirror what will be used by your application’s production environment. Contact the Axle team if you would like to make any changes, such as enabling “manual” Ignition completions.

​
Sending test documents through Axle’s Document AI

If your Axle client is configured to used Document AI, you can use the following test documents to complete Ignition sessions and receive the expected Policy response.

Identification (ID) card

Declarations page

​
Document AI failure and inaccuracy cases

If your Axle client is configured to use Document AI, you can use the following test documents to simulate failure and inaccuracy scenarios.
Do not change the name of the documents and upload them through the Ignition flow to trigger the corresponding behavior.
Use the following test documents for auto policies.
These documents will return a successful response with missing or incomplete data fields in the resulting Policy.

ID card without expiration date
