Availability: Automated and Assisted providers

If the same request is made more than once with the same type, frequency and description, a new item will not be created. Finch will instead return the benefit_id of the existing item.

This is a live request to the provider. Latencies may vary from seconds to minutes depending on the provider and number of benefits.
