CreatePortfolioStatic Method

Creates a new Touchstone Re Static Portfolio.

A portfolio in Touchstone Re is a collection of reinsurance treaties (or Layers) sourced from various Reinsurance Programs. There are three types of portfolios: master, static, and dynamic.

The master portfolio contains all the treaties in the business unit. A static portfolio is a collection of reinsurance treaties that you explicitly select from the master portfolio. A dynamic portfolio is a collection of reinsurance treaties that you select from the master portfolio by defining a filter. As treaties are added, modified, and removed from the master portfolio, the content of the dynamic portfolio changes automatically.

You create an empty static portfolio before you populate the porfolio with reinsurance treaties using the AddPortfolioLayers() method.

Example

The following example shows how to create a static portfolio using the CreatePortfolioStatic() method:

using AIR.Services.Common.Data;
 using AIR.Services.Reinsurance.PortfolioManagement.Api;
 using System;
            
class SnippetPortfolioAPIs
{
    private static void CreatePortfolioStatic(int businessUnitSid, int sqlInstanceSid, string name)
    {
        ReinsurancePortfolioManagementServiceClient client = new ReinsurancePortfolioManagementServiceClient();
            
        CreatePortfolioStaticRequest request = new CreatePortfolioStaticRequest();
        //Set the BusinessUnitSid property (required property)
        request.BusinessUnitSid = businessUnitSid;
        //Set the SqlInstanceSid property (required property)
        request.SqlInstanceSid = sqlInstanceSid;
        //Set the Name property. (required property)
        request.Name = name;
        //Set the Description property. (optional property)
        request.Description = "Created by API";
        //Submit the request and get response back
        CreatePortfolioStaticResponse response = client.CreatePortfolioStatic(request);
        //Validate the response. Response is valid if Response.Status.Code is equal to StatusCode.Success
        if (response.Status.Code == StatusCode.Success)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Portfolio created with SID: " + response.PortfolioSid);
        }
    }
}
