Overview
Integuru's IME integration provides production-ready HTTP API access to IME, the home services estimating platform at apps.trustedhomeservices.com, covering 1 action: create_estimate. The action has 11 parameters spanning product selection, collection size, labor and materials pricing, and work order assignment, with full API documentation available.
No public API. IME is a contractor-facing estimating tool with no developer API. Operations teams managing water heater installation programs have had to fill in the estimate form manually for each work order, which becomes the bottleneck when order volume grows.
Home services operations teams use this integration to create estimates on MIC work orders programmatically. The 11-parameter action covers product type, collection, installation location, labor cost, materials cost, unit price, and optional estimator assignment.

Use Cases
Integuru's IME integration lets your team create fully populated water heater estimates on existing work orders in a single API call, replacing manual data entry on the estimating platform.
- Standard catalog estimate: Set
productto a specific catalog item, passcategory,collection,location,labor_price,materials_price, andwater_heater_price, along with thework_order_number. The optionalquantityfield defaults to 1. - Custom water heater estimate: Set
productto'Other'to enable thewater_heater_numberandwater_heater_pricefields. Thewater_heater_numberpopulates the product Description field;water_heater_pricepopulates the product Price field. - Estimator assignment: Pass
estimator_namein'Last, First'format or as a partial match to assign a technician to the work order. If omitted, the currently assigned estimator is used.
Setup Notes
Integuru's IME integration authenticates against https://apps.trustedhomeservices.com/account/login?returnUrl=%2f. Integuru handles the full login flow automatically.
The create_estimate action has 8 required fields (work_order_number, product, category, collection, location, labor_price, materials_price, water_heater_price) and 3 optional ones (quantity, estimator_name, water_heater_number).
When product is set to 'Other', the quantity parameter is ignored and water_heater_number becomes relevant for populating the product Description field.
