Omit `specialties` to get the ones Solum requests automatically for the policy. Use it to prefill a request before creating or editing it. 422 with the same body as a create's when the policy is not an active policy of your company or a field can't be resolved. ## OpenAPI ````yaml https://api.getsolum.com/openapi.json post /v1/verification-of-benefits/resolve openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Solum Health API description: '## Solum Health Backend API ' version: 1.0.0 servers: [] security: [] paths: /v1/verification-of-benefits/resolve: post: tags: - Verification of Benefits summary: Resolve specialties description: >- Resolves specialties for one of your active policies exactly as creating a VOB would — each omitted field taken from your company's defaults, the billing credential from the policy's current verification (else its open VOB's result), then the insurance's billing default, then the credential registered for the specialty — and creates nothing.
