Steps
Authenticate with your API key and list existing price book items to get valid item IDs, pricing, and categories
Add a line item to a job using the job line-items endpoint, referencing either a price book item or a custom ad-hoc line item
For adding many line items to the same job at once, use the bulk line-item update/create request instead of looping single-item calls
Apply the same line-item pattern to estimates if you need pricing to match between an estimate and the job it becomes
Re-fetch the job or estimate afterward to confirm totals recalculated correctly with tax and discounts applied
Keep local price book caches in sync by periodically re-listing price book items, since there isn't a guarantee your integration will be notified of every price change
Known gotchas
The single line-item-add endpoint is rate-limited — batch line-item creation for the same job should use the bulk endpoint rather than many sequential single calls
Price book items and ad-hoc line items are shaped differently in the request payload; mixing up the two causes validation errors
Line item totals (with tax/discount) are recalculated server-side — don't assume the value you send back-calculates the same total your local code expects
