Prompt pour agents IA

Collez-le dans ChatGPT, Claude ou votre agent de code avant de demander du code : il décrit chaque endpoint, champ, statut et règle de l’API Vehicle History Report.

  • 1Il ne contient jamais votre clé : le code qu’il écrit la lit dans une variable d’environnement.
  • 2Demandez une étape à la fois : vérifier, commander, suivre status_url, garder les fichiers.
  • 3Testez d’abord avec les VIN d’exemple : ils répondent tout de suite et ne coûtent rien.

You are helping me integrate the AuctionsAPI Vehicle History Report (VHR) API.
Write production code that follows this contract exactly. Ask before you guess.
 
## 1. Basics
- Base URL: https://auctionsapi.com/api/vhr
- Every request sends the header x-api-key: <key>. Read the key from an environment
  variable (VHR_API_KEY); never hard-code it, log it or send it to a browser.
- Bodies are JSON (Content-Type: application/json); every answer is JSON.
- A VIN has 17 characters: letters and digits without I, O or Q. Uppercase it.
 
## 2. Flow
1. GET /sources: the report types (sources) this key may order, each with id, name,
   available_formats and available_languages, plus free sample VINs.
2. POST /checks {"vin"} (free): asks every source, or only "source_ids": [1, 2],
   whether it has records. Each source in "sources" has id, name, available_formats,
   available_languages, price_usd (the price for this key) and a preview object.
   A source WITHOUT a "status" field and with non-empty available_formats can be
   ordered. Other values: status "pending" (still answering), "not_found" (no record),
   "error" (could not answer now; NOT the same as no data), "not_checked" (not asked;
   NOT proof that no data exists). If availability_confirmed is false, show
   availability_notice to the user before ordering.
3. POST /reports {"vin", "source_id", "formats", "language"}: orders ONE source.
   formats: any of "json", "html", "pdf" (default ["json"]); one price covers all of
   them. language: one code the source offers, for example "en" or "ru" (default
   "en"; arrays are rejected). Optional "expected_price_usd": the price_usd from the
   check; the API answers 422 if the price changed, before any charge.
4. The answer has request_id, report_id (may be null while preparing), vin,
   source_id, status, currency, files and status_url. files is {} until the report
   is ready, then {"json": url, "html": url, "pdf": url} for the chosen formats.
5. Download the files from those links. They are bearer links: anyone with a link
   can open it, so store them like secrets. No API key is needed for the files.
 
## 3. Waiting
- A call waits up to about 10 seconds. HTTP 202 means the work goes on.
- Poll GET status_url (or GET /requests/{id}) every 1 to 2 seconds until the status
  is final, even when the poll answers HTTP 200. Give up after a few minutes and
  poll again later; stopping the wait does not cancel the work on the server.
- Never send the same purchase again while one is pending: the API answers 409.
- Check statuses: running, completed, partial (some sources failed), failed.
- Report statuses: running, preparing, rendering, completed, not_found, failed.
  Final: completed, partial, failed, not_found.
 
## 4. Money rules
- Checks, statuses, history and retries are free.
- A report is charged once, only when every selected file is ready. not_found and
  failed are never charged. The sample VINs below are always free.
 
## 5. Other endpoints
- GET /reports?page=N: your purchased reports, newest first, 30 per page (Laravel
  pagination: data, current_page, last_page, next_page_url). Samples are not kept.
- GET /reports/{id}: one report, same shape as the POST /reports answer.
- POST /reports/{id}/retry: only after a report whose files failed. Reuses the
  saved source data: no new source call and no second charge.
 
## 6. Errors (JSON with error_code and message; nothing is charged)
- 401 missing or invalid key  - 402 not enough report balance
- 403 report type not enabled for this key  - 409 same report already pending
- 422 invalid body or changed price  - 429 too many requests (back off)
- 503 reports paused for a moment (retry later)
 
## 7. Webhooks (real VINs only)
- Add "webhook_url" (public HTTPS) and "webhook_secret" (16 to 256 characters) to a
  check or a report. The API answers 202 at once and POSTs the same JSON when ready.
- Verify X-VHR-Signature: "sha256=" + hex HMAC-SHA256 of
  X-VHR-Timestamp + "." + raw body, keyed with webhook_secret. Compare in constant
  time, refuse timestamps older than 5 minutes, de-duplicate X-VHR-Event-Id.
 
## 8. Sample VINs (free, answer at once, no webhooks)
- 7FARW2H56JE022576  2018 Honda CR-V EX AWD  (reports: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

- JTDKB20U203000002  2008 Toyota Prius  (reports: 7, 8, 9)
- WVWZZZ3C4KE000001  2019 Volkswagen Passat  (reports: 7, 8, 9)
- VF1RFB00355000004  Renault  (reports: 9)

- KMHD641EELU077852  2020 Hyundai Avante  (reports: 11)
 
## 9. What to build first
- A small client with check(vin), order(vin, sourceId, formats, language) and
  waitFor(statusUrl) that polls with backoff and returns the final answer.
- Show the user which sources have records before ordering; never order a source
  that has a status field or no available_formats.
