Built for teams looking to embed DealHub’s quoting engine into custom portals, product experiences, or external workflows.

Key Benefits

  • Automated Renewals: Trigger renewal quotes without manual intervention for consistency and speed.
  • Flexible Integration: Connect seamlessly with your CRM, ERP, eCommerce, and PLG environments to fit complex workflows.

Architecture and Configuration Updates

We’ve introduced purpose-built updates to support API-driven quoting:

New Playbook Type: Playbook API 

Built for API-based quote creation with:

  • No question dependencies or hidden logic. 
  • External pricing engine and data source support.
  • Validation of all API-provided inputs.

Quote Type API Configuration

  • API-Only Generation: Quotes are exclusively created through API using Playbook API.
  • Limited UI Adjustments: Quotes can be viewed and adjusted in the UI (discounts, certain fields),, but playbook selections cannot be changed.
  • Supports Real-Time Pricing: Ensures accurate configuration updates in dynamic pricing environments.

Example Use Cases:

  • E-commerce Portals: Automatically generate and display pricing and quotes within customer-facing portals for a real-time buying experience.
  • In-Product Quoting (PLG): Enable self-service quotes directly from your product interface, with DealHub managing pricing logic in the background.
  • Automated Renewal Workflows: Trigger renewal quotes without manual involvement, ensuring consistency and faster contract cycles.
  • Partner Platforms: Allow external partners to generate and submit quotes securely via API, while maintaining governance and control.
  • Custom Approval Flows: Integrate quote actions into custom approval or CRM workflows, reducing context-switching for sales and operations teams.


Admin Configuration Note:

This feature requires setup of a dedicated Playbook API and associated quote types. Admin users can review API documentation or reach out to Customer Success for guided enablement support.

Pricing Information:

This capability is not included in core DealHub pricing. Pricing will be determined in consultation with your Customer Success Manager. Please contact your CSM if you are interested in access or implementation guidance.

Why This Matters: 

For organizations scaling their revenue operations, the Generate Quote and Actions API offers the flexibility to embed quoting capabilities directly into the selling ecosystem. It provides centralized control, real-time data accuracy, and supports evolving business models across all channels.
