  ApiClient client = new ApiClient();
  OkHttpClient.Builder clientBuilder = client.getHttpClient().newBuilder();

  // Configure the Mastercard service URL
  client.setBasePath("https://sandbox.api.mastercard.com/loyalty/insurance");

  // Add the interceptor code responsible for signing the request
  // NOTE - encryption interceptor is not added here
  clientBuilder
  .addInterceptor(new OkHttpOAuth1Interceptor(consumerKey, signingKey));

  client.setHttpClient(clientBuilder.build());

  InsuranceClaimsApi claimSearchAPI = new InsuranceClaimsApi(client);

  // populate the claim id, postal code and the language
  ClaimStatusRequest claimStatusRequest = new ClaimStatusRequest();
  claimStatusRequest.setClaimId("CLAIMID");
  claimStatusRequest.setPostalCode("postalCode");
  claimStatusRequest.setPreferredLanguage("EN");

  InsuranceClaimsApi claimSearchAPI = new InsuranceClaimsApi(client);
  ClaimStatus claimStatus = claimSearchAPI.claimSearchesPost(claimStatusRequest);
