# GetFirmAdvancedSearchesClaim - Advanced Documentation

## When to Use

**This is the entry point for any bulk or aggregate claim query** - "all open claims", "claims by status", "firm-wide claim lists", "claims report", "how many claims", etc. It returns saved advanced searches that can be executed via `GetAdvancedSearchResults`. Do NOT use `SearchClaimsExtended` or other `SearchClaims*` endpoints for aggregate queries - those are limited to individual claim lookups (max 10 results).

## Overview

Returns firm-level saved advanced searches filtered to claim-type searches only (`AdvancedSearchTypeIDName like 'Claims%'`).

## Permissions

Requires **ManageFirm** permission. Throws `RadoloException` if the caller does not have this permission.

SearchFilter matches by substring (contains) on the search name, not by prefix.

## Implementation Details

- Delegates to `GetFirmAdvancedSearches` with `QueryRoot.Claim`, which appends `AdvancedSearchTypeIDName like 'Claims%'` to the query
- Used by FlightPath connection dialogs for claim surveys and correspondence
