# Report a wrong criterion or a wrong figure

POST https://api.finput.com.au/api/v1/reports
Content-Type: application/json

Files a report against a named approval, rate bracket, product or organisation. The subject must resolve to an organisation — a report nobody can filter to is one nobody will action — and either `subject_field` or `comment` must say what is wrong.

Call `GET /api/v1/reports/duplicates` first so the user can see that others have already reported the same thing.

Session-only: refuses API-token auth. Reporting may not be available on every account; where it is not, filing is refused with `403`.

Reference: https://docs.finput.com.au/api/endpoints/issue-reports/create-issue-report

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — JWT access token obtained from `POST /api/v1/auth/login`, or a `finput_sk_...` API token

## Request

### Body (application/json)

This endpoint expects an IssueReportCreateRequest.

- `kind` (enum, required) — What the broker says is wrong: - `approval` — a stated approval criterion is wrong or stale - `pricing` — a rate or repayment figure is wrong
  - Allowed values: `approval`, `pricing`
- `source_surface` (enum, required) — Which screen the report was raised from.
  - Allowed values: `calculator`, `matrix`, `matrix-calculator`
- `subject_org` (integer, optional, nullable)
- `approval` (integer, optional, nullable)
- `rate_bracket` (integer, optional, nullable)
- `product` (integer, optional, nullable)
- `subject_field` (string, optional)
- `expected_value` (string, optional)
- `comment` (string, optional)
- `deal_params` (map from string to any, optional)
- `result_snapshot` (map from string to any, optional)

## Response

### 201

## Errors

### 400 Bad Request Error

No resolvable subject, or neither `subject_field` nor `comment` given.

- `error` (string, optional)
- `errors` (map from string to list of string, optional)

### 403 Forbidden Error

Reporting is not available on this account, or API-token auth was used.
