Preview a formation order
preview_orderRead-only
Validates and prices a formation order and returns the exact summary that would be submitted, WITHOUT submitting anything (no side effects). Use when the user wants FilingDesk to form their LLC or corporation and has provided the business name, state, entity type, and their name, email, and phone. The returned summary is meant to be shown to the user verbatim, and this step is required before submit_order.
