Path parameters
Headers
wait=N holds the read open for up to N seconds, where N is a whole number from 0 to 20. The answer comes as soon as the request changes, with a new quote or a new status, or when the time runs out. A change counts from since_version when you send it, and otherwise from the version that the read finds first, so the full N seconds pass only when nothing changes. The answer carries Preference-Applied when the server held the read open. When the server can't hold the request, it answers at once without Preference-Applied and with Retry-After. Wait that long before you poll again.
The contract revision of this request, which every operation in this document requires. This document describes 2026-09-26. Served revisions: 2026-09-26. A missing header, or one that names no served revision exactly, answers invalid_version (400), and its field error lists the served revisions in allowed_values, newest first.
Query parameters
The version of this quote request in the last answer you read. With Prefer: wait, a request that is already newer answers at once, and otherwise the read waits for a newer version or a status other than in_progress. A version higher than the current one counts as the current one. Without Prefer: wait, the read answers at once either way.
Response headers
The ID of this answer. An error body repeats it as request_id.
The contract revision of this answer: the revision that the request named in Truvo-Version. A 404, and a refusal sent before Truvo knows your revision (401, 413, a 429 for failed authentication, and a 400 invalid_version), name the current revision and take its shape.
wait=N when the server held the read open for up to N seconds. Absent when the server answered without holding the read open.
Response
Why the resource has this status. New reasons can arrive in any revision: show message, and give any switch on reason a default branch.
