Add a Producer
Create a producer and associate them with your entities
entityIds must be inside your subtree; one that is not returns 404 and nothing is written.
NPN behaviour
- With an
npn, an existing producer holding that NPN is reused and associated with your entities rather than duplicated. This is what you want: NPN is the producerβs identity across the industry. - Without an
npn, a new producer record is always created. There is no name matching, deliberately β two people can share a name, and merging them silently would be worse than creating a second record you can reconcile.
Sensitive fields
ssn is optional, encrypted at rest, and never returned by any endpoint on this API. dateOfBirth is stored and likewise never returned.

Middle name

National Producer Number. When supplied, an existing producer with this NPN is reused rather than duplicated. When omitted, a new producer is always created.
"7654321"
Social Security Number, with or without hyphens. Encrypted at rest and never returned by any endpoint: reads expose the last four digits only. Required by NIPR for licence renewal submissions, so a producer added without one cannot be submitted for renewal until it is supplied.
