Welcome!

Lockton Re has created an easy-to-use API capability that allows our trading partners to programmatically connect through the reinsurance placement process. Our API’s are built to support pre-bind contract activity from placement origin to sign down. We would like to invite you to experiment with our SAGELink Market API. We are hosting this site towards our mutual benefit:

  • Leading API security and authentication mechanisms

  • One stop documentation and wiki-style technical resources for our partner developers

  • Monitoring, management, and deployment integration for a cleaner developer experience

  • Simple hosting of sample payloads and test cases for ease of integration into your opportunity ingest system(s)

  • Scalability, knowing that market interest in this area is growing rapidly and Lockton Re wants to provide you with digitally empowered broking services

As part of our development in this area we are hosting an API Management site that we invite you to sign up for. Please consider our invitation to sign up here: https://apim-dev-sagelink.developer.azure-api.net

  1. After you sign up and we register your account you will receive an email notification that you have joined our group.

  2. You will then be able to sign in and access the ‘Explore APIs’ section (you are here now) where you will find our SAGELink Market API product (please see below). Clicking that, you will be presented with an outline of the electronic submission workflow we have implemented to date, and the ability below that to click into each API endpoint which represents a stage of the pre-bind workflow.

  3. Clicking each API (presented sequentially for clarity) you will find technical details depicting:

    1. The initial request structure and associated query string parameters if applicable

    2. Sample HTTP responses and associated JSON response bodies

    3. Definitions, and at the very bottom an export feature for various OpenAPI or other formats

We are making continuous enhancements to the business/messaging workflow and so the “Lockton Re SAGELink Business/Technical Process Outline” diagram will update periodically. We will be further developing the APIs to best supply you with timely, digitally delivered opportunity and placement data, and we welcome your feedback to ensure our API product and development backlog represent your needs. We are adding new test cases and sample JSONs and a comprehensive data dictionary resource to assist you. If you are already deep into API product development we are also happy to map your own custom JSON data payload formats using our proprietary transpose engine in SAGELink.

Any inquires can be directed to borndigital@lockton.com.
