Congratulations! At this point, you've completed all previous milestones. If you're a technology partner, you're now ready for Avalara to review your integration.

How do I submit?

To initiate a functional review:

Create a recording demonstrating your integration, including the installation.

Send the recording along with the user guide to DG-PartnerLaunch@avalara.com.

Avalara will review your demo and then follow up with you. During this follow-up, Avalara will either request more information from you or inform you that you achieved certification.

What do I include in the demo?

Your integration should include all requirements mentioned in the previous chapters. Specifically, we want to see the following:
