Sessions

Create New Session

Creates a new session for processing a service address. This is typically the first endpoint called when starting a new address lookup flow.

Request Flow

Submit service address components
Receive a session token
Use session token in the URL path for subsequent requests

Processing

Upon session creation, Hum AI agents begin:

Validating and normalizing the address
Geocoding the location
Identifying available service providers
Gathering plan and pricing information

Response Handling

201: Session created successfully, proceed with GET requests to monitor status
422: Invalid address components, check error details
429: Rate limit exceeded, implement exponential backoff

Important Notes

The session token is part of the URL path for all requests after creation
The session token is required for all subsequent requests
The session token is valid for 30 minutes of inactivity
Rate limits apply to all requests

Example Usage

POST /sessions
{
  "street1": "29090 Tiffany Drive E",
  "city": "Southfield",
  "state": "MI",
  "zip": "48034"
}
