Establish your connection to the NDIS APIs
This article will guide you through the process of establishing a live connection between quickclaim and your Provider portal via the NDIS APIs
Contents
1. Register or Join an Organisation in PRODA
1.1 Login to your PRODA account (https://proda.humanservices.gov.au/) and click on the Organisations tab in the top right corner.
If you do not see your organisation listed here, you'll need to either Join or Register your organisation. If you or anyone else has previously used PRODA to register your organisation, registered then go to step 1.2. If you do not see your organisation here, and no-one else in your organisation has previously registered with PRODA, go to step 1.3.

Join an Organisation
1.2 Click 'Join an Organisation', enter your organisation's ABN and click 'Search'. Assuming your organisation details match, click either of 'Join using RAM', which requires you to be listed as a Company Officer on Relationship Authorisation Manager, or 'Join using ABR', which requires you to be listed as a Company Officer on the Australian Business Register.
The number one reason joining an organisation fails is because of a mismatch between your name as listed in PRODA (see top-right corner of the screen) and the listing in DigitalID (RAM's source) or the ABR. If you have a middle name in one but not the other, you'll need to contact PRODA support on proda@servicesaustralia.gov.au to manually link your account.

Register an Organisation
1.3(a) Click on the Register New Organisation menu option.
1.3(b) Fill in your organisation details based on your details in the Australian Business Registry and press Submit. If you do not know your details, you can check them online (https://abr.gov.au/).
1.3(c) Verify your email address and you will see the Manage my organisation screen. Write down your PRODA RA number as you will need it in Part 2.

1.4 Adding NDIS API Service Provider
1.4(a) Click on the Service Provider menu option under 'Manage my organisation'
1.5(b) Click on the Add Service Provider button, select the NDIS API option and then click on the Add Service Provider button at the bottom of the page.
1.5 Adding a B2B Device
