Market Insights Snapshot

The Market Insights Snapshot 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.

You must implement your own trigger button to launch the iframe and load in all required inputs as below.

Example Implementation Inputs

To load the iframe you need to share the following input variables.

Vehicle Identifier Preferences

The system will take the most economically logical identifier and fall back to others when provided with options. The preference list is below.

  1. If provided with a Vehicle_Description it will use that.

  2. If not, VIN will be used,

  3. If not, Registration

If your commercial agreement does not include the VIN and Registration fallbacks the system will provide an error when a vehicle description is insufficient for any match at all.

Example Implementation iFrame

<iframe
src="http://localhost:3000/?region=nz&odometer=10000&vehicle_description=2017%20Mazda%20CX-3%20Maxx&vin=123ABC&registration_plate=ABC123&api_key={yourkey}"
/>

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 centred.

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

Please ensure your implementation meets the minimum event listener requirements.

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

An exception or error was 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.
