Property contents incidents

Some types of policies cover property owned by the insured that is stored in a given location. For example:

  • On a homeowner's policy, jewelry or electronics could be covered on the policy.
  • On a business owner's policy, business equipment could be covered on the policy.

A property contents incident is an object that contains a set of these covered items. Each covered piece is an assessment content item.

In ClaimCenter, property content incidents are stored in the PropertyContentIncident entity. Items covered by a property contents incident are usually small enough to be moveable. Thus, the PropertyContentIncident entity is a subtype of MobilePropertyIncident. Assessment content items are stored in the AssessmentContentItem entity.

In Cloud API, the Claim API has multiple sets of endpoints for property content incident information:

  • One set for the property content incident itself
  • One set for assessment content items

In each set, there is a collection GET, a POST, an element GET, a PATCH, and a DELETE.

When working with assessment content items, there are differences between the ClaimCenter user interface and Cloud API.

  • In the user interface, the Notes field is read-only, and its content is populated by business rules. In Cloud API, the corresponding field, itemComment, is editable.
  • In the user interface, the Description is required. The Cloud API, the corresponding field, description, is not required.

Endpoints for managing property contents incidents

Use the following endpoints to manage property contents incidents:

  • GET /claims/{claimId}/property-contents-incidents
  • POST /claims/{claimId}/property-contents-incidents
  • GET /claims/{claimId}/property-contents-incidents/{incidentId}
  • PATCH /claims/{claimId}/property-contents-incidents/{incidentId}
  • DELETE /claims/{claimId}/property-contents-incidents/{incidentId}

For example, the following request creates a property contents incident for claim cc:117.

POST /claim/v1/claims/cc:117/property-contents-incidents

{
    "data": {
        "attributes": {
            "description": "Items stolen during burglary",
            "location": {
                "address": {
                    "id": "cc:SztgJU4ZkQ_tZx0rIW2fL",
                    }
                },
                "primaryLocation": false
            }
        }
    }
}
