Ask us

From a check to a report.

The report lab uses the same endpoints as your integration. Requests use your key; code examples keep it hidden.

01

Authentication

Send x-api-key on every request. Source ids and formats come from your own catalog and VIN check; access and prices are applied by the API.

02

Check, then choose one source

POST /checks returns price, available_formats and a preview for every source. POST /reports takes one source_id, one language and one or more formats, for one price per report. If availability_confirmed is false, read availability_notice first.

03

Files, not an inline history

JSON, HTML and PDF come as links on our CDN; some sources keep photos or a ready HTML page at their original address. Treat every report link as an access key.

04

Long requests

HTTP waits up to 10 seconds. HTTP 202 means the work goes on: poll status_url every 1 to 2 seconds until the status is final. Never repeat a pending purchase.

05

Failure and recovery

A source error is not the same as no data. A report is charged only when every selected file is ready. If the files fail, POST /reports/{id}/retry reuses the saved data, with no second charge.

06

Webhooks

For real VINs add a public HTTPS webhook_url and a webhook_secret (16 to 256 characters). The API answers 202 and posts the result when it is ready, signed in X-VHR-Signature with X-VHR-Timestamp.

Questions about the Vehicle History Report API

One API that checks a VIN across 11 vehicle history report types and returns the report you choose as JSON, an HTML page or a PDF.

Yes. The check tells you which sources have records for the VIN and shows a short preview. A report is charged only when it is made.

The check says so and the source cannot be ordered for that VIN, so you never pay for an empty report.

Most report types come as JSON, HTML and PDF from the same data; Avtocod comes as HTML and PDF. Each report type lists its languages: English, Russian or both.

Yes. The sample VINs in the report lab return full sample reports at no cost, here and through the API with the free demo key.
