Avalara isn't very helpful when it comes to integration issues. The response has been to ask the other service.

having Avalara file our returns saves us a lot of time and are more accurate than completing them manually ourselves.
managing certificates in Avalara helps to keep the certificates organized and increases visibility of missing/expired certificates.
