At the moment this property cannot be manually set and instead is pulled in from calculations based on the term length and values of the recurring **[line items](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/deals/how-do-i-use-products#associate-a-product-or-multiple-products-with-a-deal-record)** associated to the deal. But for some service clients we’d like the ability to manually set the ARR property.

I am programmatically creating deals and inserting line items via API v3. I can calculate the ARR according to my business rules, but I cannot set the ARR from the API. The deals I created from the API do not have any ARR value in HubSpot either--presumably because I created them via API. Unless there is a way for me to set the ARR value via API or trigger the API calculations after I create the deal, there doesn’t seem to be a way to use the ARR features.
