Market Overlay Widget
The Market Overlay widget system provides insights into the marketability of a given car in a marketplace.
Overview
The widget can show regionalised market insights based on input vehicles. It is customisable to your brand via a hero brand icon. The resulting market information can help your customers understand the market reception to a given vehicle.
Implementation
Speak to your sales rep about your desired implementation pattern. We will supply you with staging and production iFrame url code as part of your deployment process.
Implementation of the trigger to present this iframe is the responsibility of the site owner.
There are two options for the implementation of the overlay:
Auto-Search
By providing a stringified vehicle description, AutoGrab will automatically match the vehicle based on the description and value based on the odometer provided when triggering the overlay widget. If the vehicle is incorrect, the user can override it.
Manual Selection
If no vehicle description and odo are provided, the overlay will prompt the user to select a vehicle manually from a set of dropdowns.
Example Auto Search Implementation Inputs

Position On Page
You have two options to embed the iframe inside your website. In both these options, it is critical that you set the iframe width to 650px and centered.
Popup - holding the iframe in a popup container and ensuring you conform to the AUTOGRAB_INSIGHTS_HIDE to event listening to close the popup container and AUTOGRAB_INSIGHTS_DIMENSIONS resize the height dynamically.
On Page - holding the iframe on a page ensuring you let us know so we can remove the close button. Since the page can still extend vertically you need to respond to the AUTOGRAB_INSIGHTS_DIMENSIONS alert.
Event Listeners
The valuation widget will send messages you need to pay attention to via the iframe postMessage function. The messages are as follows.
AUTOGRAB_INSIGHTS_SUCCESS
The widget loaded successfully, no intervention is needed.
AUTOGRAB_INSIGHTS_ERROR
There was an exception or error delivering the iframe contents.
AUTOGRAB_INSIGHTS_HIDE
The close button at the end of the workflow or close X in the interface has been pressed.
AUTOGRAB_INSIGHTS_DIMENSIONS
The iframe has resized due to changes in the contents. Please respond by resizing the iframe container to hold the new contents without cropping.
