FinancialDataApiClient

Concrete client for the Guidewire ClaimCenter FinancialDataApi. It extends HttpClientBase, resolving its base URL from the cc.financial.api.url.v1 configuration key and Basic-auth credentials from cc.gwcreds, and implements IFinancialDataApiClient by creating checks and recoveries and by querying payments and check-related bill data.

Purpose

  • Creates check and recovery financial transactions against a claim, surfacing non-success responses and transport failures as thrown exceptions with status/content details.
  • Retrieves payment records filtered by invoice number or issue date, with an option to include zero-pay payments, and retrieves bill details for a given check number.

Context

  • Namespace: SAIF.Data.Guidewire.Clients
  • Assembly/package: SAIF.Data.Guidewire (packaged in SAIF.SAIFCode.Core)

CreateCheckAsync(long, CheckFinancialData) public Task<string> CreateCheckAsync(long claimId, CheckFinancialData data) Serializes data and synchronously blocks on a POST to {BaseAddress}{claimId}/check; throws per SDG-BR-011 on transport errors or a non-success response, otherwise returns the raw response body
CreateRecoveryAsync(long, RecoveryFinancialData) public Task<string> CreateRecoveryAsync(long claimId, RecoveryFinancialData data) Serializes data and asynchronously POSTs to {BaseAddress}{claimId}/recovery; throws per SDG-BR-011 on transport errors or a non-success response, otherwise returns the raw response body
GetPaymentsByInvoiceNumber(string, bool) public Task<PaymentsResponse> GetPaymentsByInvoiceNumber(string invoiceNumber, bool includeZeroPays = false) Cached GET of payments?invoiceNumber={urlEncoded}, appending &includeZeroPays=true (lowercase) only when includeZeroPays is true
GetPaymentsByIssueDate(DateTime, bool) public Task<PaymentsResponse> GetPaymentsByIssueDate(DateTime issueDate, bool includeZeroPays = false) Cached GET of payments?issueDate={urlEncoded, JSON_DATE_FORMAT}, appending &includeZeroPays=true (lowercase) only when requested, per SDG-BR-013
GetBillDetailsForCheckNumber(long) public Task<CheckBillData> GetBillDetailsForCheckNumber(long checkNumber) Cached GET of checks/{checkNumber}, returning claim/invoice info related to the check

Behavioral notes

  • CreateCheckAsync blocks the calling thread via GetAwaiter().GetResult() for the POST call itself (documented in the source as intentional, to force Polly/HttpClient pipeline failures to surface at this call site for batch logging), while the subsequent content read remains asynchronous.
  • CreateRecoveryAsync performs the POST asynchronously (no blocking GetAwaiter().GetResult()), unlike CreateCheckAsync.
  • Both CreateCheckAsync and CreateRecoveryAsync construct the request URL by concatenating Client.BaseAddress with the claim id and a literal path segment, rather than using a relative path passed to Client.PostAsync.
  • Zero-pay inclusion for both payment lookup methods only appends the query parameter when includeZeroPays is true; the API is documented in source as rejecting non-lowercase boolean literals, per SDG-BR-013.
  • The obsolete constructor always disables caching for this client and ignores any baseUrlOverride value.

Constraints and usage notes

  • Depends on HttpClientBase (documented in this same doc set) for base-address resolution, authentication, and the cached GET/POST helpers.
  • GetPaymentsByIssueDate formats issueDate using HttpClientHelper.JSON_DATE_FORMAT ("yyyy-MM-dd") before URL-encoding it.

Note: Statements marked with † are derived from dependency library documentation via the Legends CLI. They describe inherited behavior from the indicated origin library and should be verified if the dependency version changes.
