Steps
Register on the Mitchell developer portal and request an application key for the RepairCenter Transactional API, scoped to the line(s) of business (e.g., collision repair shop vs. auto insurance estimating) you need.
Use OpportunityService to read estimate-line-level detail (parts, labor operations, damage) for a given repair opportunity.
Use ClaimService to pull the associated insurance claim information tied to that estimate.
Use ShopService to look up shop, user, and employee records when your integration needs to attribute work to a specific technician or location.
Develop and test against the RepairCenter Sandbox environment, referencing Mitchell's Data Dictionary for exact field definitions, before requesting production credentials.
Known gotchas
Access is scoped by line of business — an application key approved for collision-repair-shop use may not automatically have access to insurer-side estimating data, and vice versa.
Field semantics in collision estimating (e.g., how supplements, betterment, or R&I labor are represented) are industry-specific; the Data Dictionary is not optional reading if you want correct totals.
This is a B2B transactional API tied to a real shop/insurer relationship — you generally need an existing Mitchell customer relationship, not just a developer signup, to get production data flowing.
