Data Packs
About Our Data Packs
What are Data Packs?
Data Packs are optional blocks of data that can be included into your reports if you choose.
We're introducing these Data Packs as a means for allowing you to produce reports that can flex based on the information that is relevant for your specific scenario. They also allow you to control your costs. If you don't need the information, simply don't include it and we won't charge you for it.
More Data Packs will be introduced over time but we'll let you know as new one's get launched.

How do I include or exclude a Data Pack?
It's pretty simple via our Portal.
Prior to you generating a report we'll present you with a list of the Data Packs that are available for the report. Simply check the box next to the one(s) you want to include and we'll do the rest. The data, if it can be found, will be included within the report.
From an API perspective, you'll need to explicitly request the data pack(s) within the URL of the request.
What if I want the information but forgot to include the Data Pack?
At this stage you'll need to re-run the report.
Available Data Packs

Our VIN Specific Flag that will enhance your understanding of the vehicle:
Whether the vehicle YEAR attribute on the AutoID report matches the actual build year.

When this information is requested, it will be appended to the report as follows:
For our AutoReport and AutoReport Plus portal reports, the information will be provided by default.

Auto Claim NEVDIS Data
It is possible to add NEVDIS information to the core Auto Claim API for both the full and flag report types.
This Data Pack will insert the following NEVDIS information into the JSON payload

Auto Grab Valuation Bounds
It is possible to add the upper and lower valuation bounds (high and low) to an AutoGrab Real-Time valuation API.
For example the following shows the bounds Data Pack (feature) added to the AutoGrab Valuation API endpoint:

This Data Pack will insert the bounds information into the JSON payload, an example of the added data is as follows:
"bounds": {
"retail": {
"lower": 9005,
"upper": 11255
},
"trade": {
"lower": 5179.75,
"upper": 7429.75
}

An example is as follows:
AutoReport Plus Claim Repair History
Via the MotorWeb portal it is possible to add information on any prior damage that a vehicle may have had and has been assessed by a repairer. This in turn gives visibility of any prior repairs that may have been made on the vehicle.
It should be noted that this data set does not cover all claim repairs, however the coverage is sizeable.
Claim repair data is information from a vehicle assessor who has been engaged by an insurer to evaluate the cost of repair for any damage on a vehicle. It does not mean that the claim was approved, nor is there any information on the insured person. This information purely relates to the vehicle and the damage.
NOTE:
Where prior claim repair information can be found, we will alert you and provide the corresponding detailed data. You will be charged for the full report
Where prior claim repair information cannot be found, we will alert advise that no data could be found (note that this does not mean the vehicle has not had prior repairs - rather we cannot find any data suggesting there have been repairs). You will be charged for the flag only.
The following example shows the prior damage for a real world vehicle:
