Managing fixed property incidents
Overview of the fixed property incident parent
At the parent level, the fixed property incident is an object that captures loss information about a fixed piece of property (such as a building). Cloud API supports the management of fixed property incidents at this parent level, as opposed to working at the child level with either dwelling incidents or other structure incidents.
A fixed property incident typically includes an inline damageable called
location, with fields that describe inherent qualities of the
property's location, such as address. The fixed property incident
also contains additional information specific to the loss, such as
lossparty and severity. You do not have to
specify location when you create a fixed property incident. If you
do want to specify location, you can either:
- Specify an existing location on the policy by providing its
policySystemId. - Specify an existing location on the claim by providing its ClaimCenter
id. - Create a new location by providing its attributes inline.
Unlike some other damageables, a location cannot be created as a
referenced resource in the included section and then specified by
refid. A new location must be created as an inlined
damageable.
Endpoints for managing fixed property incidents
Use the following endpoints to manage fixed property incidents:
- GET
/claims/{claimId}/fixed-property-incidents - POST
/claims/{claimId}/fixed-property-incidents - GET
/claims/{claimId}/fixed-property-incidents/{incidentId} - PATCH
/claims/{claimId}/fixed-property-incidents/{incidentId} - DELETE
/claims/{claimId}/fixed-property-incidents/{incidentId}
For example, the following request creates a fixed property incident for claim cc:73.
In the request, the inline damageable (the incident's location) is
included, and it is created as an inlined resource.
POST /claim/v1/claims/cc:73/fixed-property-incidents
