Example

The following example shows how to create a Touchstone Contract using the CreateContract() method:

using System;
using AIR.Services.Common.Data;
using AIR.Services.Common.Exposure.Data;
using AIR.Services.ExposureManagement.Api;
            
class SnippetCreateContractRequest
{
    private static void CreateContract(int businessUnitSid, int sqlInstanceSid, string contractId, int exposureSetSid, int dataSourceSid)
    {
        ExposureManagementServiceClient exposureManagementClient = new ExposureManagementServiceClient();
        CreateContractRequest request = new CreateContractRequest();
        request.BusinessUnitSid = businessUnitSid;
        request.SqlInstanceSid = sqlInstanceSid;
        request.Contract = new Contract
        {
            ID = contractId,
            Type = ContractType.PrimaryProperty,
            Status = ContractStatus.Submitted,
            InceptionDate = new DateTime(2014, 1, 1),
            ExpirationDate = new DateTime(2014, 12, 31),
            Currency = "USD",
            Perils = PerilSetCode.TropicalCyclone,
            ExposureSet = new ExposureSet { Sid = exposureSetSid, DataSourceSid = dataSourceSid }
        };
            
        CreateContractResponse response = exposureManagementClient.CreateContract(request);
            
        if (response.Status.Code == StatusCode.Success)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(" Contract: " + contractId + " created with SID: " + response.ContractSid);
        }
    }
}
