An import job ingests data into the Intelligent Risk Platform.
This operation supports the creation of the following types of import jobs: CEDE, EDM, EXPOSURE_BULK_EDIT, EXPOSURE_RESOURCE, EXPOSURE_VARIATION, MRI, OED, RDM_DATABRIDGERDM, RISK_SOURCE.
Each import type imports exposure or results data into an Intelligent Risk Platform resource (e.g. EDM). Most of these import types import data that was previously uploaded to an import folder.
Import Type
File Type
Description
CEDE
bak, mdf
Import CEDE data from import folder into EDM.
EDM
bak, mdf
Import exposure data from import folder into EDM.
EXPOSURE_BULK_EDIT
json, gz
Import exposures from import folder.
EXPOSURE_RESOURCE
parquet
Import exposure data into EDM.
EXPOSURE_VARIATION
parquet
Import exposure data from exposure variation.
MRI
csv, txt, xlsx
Import exposure data using MRI (multi-relational import) from import folder.
OED
csv, txt
Import exposure data in OED format from import folder.
RDM_DATABRIDGE
parquet
Import results data from RDM on Data Bridge server.
RDM
bak, mdf
Import results data from import folder.
RISK_SOURCE
csv
Import ELT or PLT from import folder as program risk source .
CEDE Import Job
A CEDE import job imports CEDE data uploaded to a CEDE import folder.
CEDE™ (Catastrophe Exposure Data Exchange) is an open-source exposure data schema that is designed to facilitate the exchange of exposure data and development of models for analyzing risk. The CEDE data schema was developed by AIR Worldwide and is used by the Touchstone® risk management platform.
The request specifies the URI of an exposure set, the ID of the import folder on Amazon S3 that contains the uploaded CEDE file, and the ID of a Platform server instance.
Moody's Insurance Solutions makes Postman Collections available to licensed tenants for download from the RMS Developers public workspace.
The CEDE Import collection demonstrates a workflow importing CEDE data.
EDM Import Job
An EDM import job imports an EDM uploaded to an EDM import folder and creates a new EDM on the specified database server.
The request specifies the URI of an exposure set, the ID import folder on Amazon S3 that contains the uploaded database artifact in BAK or MDF format, a name for the new EDM, and the ID of a database server.
An EXPOSURE_BULK_EDIT import job imports exposure data uploaded to an EXPOSURE_BULK_EDIT import folder on Amazon S3.
Large volumes of exposure data may be uploaded to an import folder in JSON format. The EXPOSURE_BULK_EDIT import folder accepts both JSON files and compressed JSON files (GZ).
The request specifies the URI of an exposure set and the ID of an import folder on Amazon S3 that contains the exposure data in JSON format.
An EXPOSURE_VARIATION import job creates a new exposure variation (account variation, aggregate portfolio variation, or portfolio variation) from a Parquet file uploaded to an import folder on Amazon S3.
An exposure variation is an immutable snapshot of an exposure (portfolio, account, aggregate portfolio) that is stored as a Parquet file in the Exposure Variation Store.
The request specifies the URI of an exposure set, the ID import folder on Amazon S3 that contains the uploaded Parquet file, and, optionally, the ID of a related exposure.
MRI utilizes flat files of account, location, reinsurance exposure data. A flat file is a delimited text file that stores structured data in a plain text format. MRI leverages a separate mapping file to define the relationships between the account, location, and reinsurance exposures.

A OED import job imports OED data uploaded to a OED import folder.
The OED (Open Exposure Data) schema is an exposure database format defined by OASIS that is serves as an industry standard schema for Oasis LMF-based models.
An RDM import job imports result data uploaded to an RDM import folder.
The Results Data Module (RDM) is a database structure that stores results data (loss estimates and other outputs) during catastrophe modeling.
The request specifies the URI of an exposure set, the ID of the import folder on Amazon S3 that contains the uploaded data artifact in BAK or MDF format, and the name of the RDM.

RDM Data Bridge Import Job
A RDM_DATABRIDGE import job imports an RDM database from a managed server instance on Data Bridge.

Risk Source Import Job
An RISK_SOURCE import job imports loss table data (ELT or PLT) as a risk source from the specified import folder.
A risk source is a representation of risk to a cedant including modeled losses that underlies a program (reinsurance program) or business hierarchy position. The risk source links the program or business hierarchy to EDMs that contain the portfolios or analysis results.
The request specifies the import type, resource URI of a risk source, and import job settings:
