Steps

  1. Obtain an OAuth 2.0 access token from your Guidewire tenant's authorization server using client credentials flow; store as YOUR_GW_TOKEN.
  2. POST to /rest/claim/v1/claims with a JSON body containing lossDate, lossType, policyId, and reportedDate to open a new claim; capture the returned claimId.
  3. Add exposures to the claim by POSTing to /rest/claim/v1/claims/{claimId}/exposures with coverageType and relatedTo fields.
  4. Update claim fields (e.g., assignedAdjuster, status) via PATCH /rest/claim/v1/claims/{claimId} using a JSON Merge Patch body.
  5. Retrieve the Swagger definition from <applicationURL>/rest/claim/v1/swagger.json via Swagger UI at <applicationURL>/resources/swagger-ui/ to verify available endpoints for your tenant's release.
  6. Consult the ClaimCenter Cloud API Developer Guide at docs.guidewire.com/cloud/cc/ for the current release to confirm field names and enumerations before coding.
