A new-business quote activates its subscription; an amendment publishes its phase onto the live subscription. Quotes with `auto_activate` take effect on their own once signed (a new-business quote at its contract start), so this is only needed for manual activation. The quote itself stays `signed` — read `subscription_id` to confirm the deal is live. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/v2/specs/2026-04-01.json post /quotes/{id}/activate openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Alguna Public API version: '2026-04-01' servers: - url: https://api.alguna.io security: - bearerAuth: [] tags: - name: Billing Events and Metrics - name: Checkout Sessions - name: Credit Notes - name: Credits - name: Customer Portal Sessions - name: Customers - name: Insights - name: Integrations - name: Invoices - name: Merchants - name: Payments - name: Plans - name: Product Bundles - name: Products - name: Quotes - name: Refunds - name: Revenue Schedules - name: Subscription Changes - name: Subscription Versions - name: Subscriptions - name: Tags - name: Tax - name: Wallet Grants - name: Wallets paths: /quotes/{id}/activate: post: tags: - Quotes summary: Activate a signed quote description: >- Puts a signed quote into effect: requires `status` of `signed`.
