The result is normally `inProgress`, or `bound` when a bound quote exists. Any stored close reason and explanation remain as the historical record of the earlier close. Use this action instead of changing `submissionStatus` through the generic entity endpoint. Only a closed submission can be reopened; calling this for any other state returns a strict `409`. **Required permission:** `submission.reopen` ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi/generated-external-api.yaml post /api/v1/companies/{companyId}/submissions/{submissionId}/reopen openapi: 3.0.3 info: title: AI Insurance External API description: External API for AI Insurance platform version: 1.0.0 contact: email: support@aiinsurance.io servers: - url: https://go.aiinsurance.io description: Production security: - ApiKeyAuth: [] paths: /api/v1/companies/{companyId}/submissions/{submissionId}/reopen: post: tags: - Submission and Quote Lifecycle summary: Reopen Submission description: > Reopens a closed submission by recomputing its system-managed status from its live quotes.
