}Report Features
The report endpoint has the ability to determine the content of the report based on the information that is handed to it.
Vehicle Identification
Where-ever possible it is recommended to provide as much vehicle information as possible. What the data is used for is controlled by the sources array.
VIN
Registration/State - If registration is provided, state is mandatory
Odometer
Valuation
A previous valuation can be included in the report generation by adding the following data. What data is used for the valuation is determined on priority:
Price Record ID
If the pricing record ID is passed in the request, the associated valuation will populate the report. A valuation ID is generated using the Valuation endpoint and contained in the response. So, a valuation call needs to be performed before generating the report.
Lead ID
A lead ID is obtained from the Sourcing endpoint and is the tier 2 valuation source.
Odometer
If no Pricing or Lead ID is provided but an odometer is, the odometer will be used to perform a valuation with the same logic as the Valuation endpoint.
Brand
Controls White labeling of the report
Marketplace Specific Fields
When using reports integrated within a marketplace additional fields can be included in the request to allow for data from the marketplace listing to be displayed in the report.
Marketplace Image URL
URL to a public image from the marketplace listing, will replace the stock photo contained in a standard CarAnalysis Report
The Marketplace Image URL must end in a jpeg/jpg format. Magic links are not currently supported. i.e. www.marketplace.com/listing/vehicleimage.jpg. listing/vehicleimage/ will fail to generate.
Marketplace Price
The price displayed on the listing on the marketplace.
Note it is not possible to use the marketplace price and the valuation source in the same report.
Marketplace Price Type
Displays the type of price for the Marketplace price being provided.
Sources
The sources enum determines additional features that are included within the report PDF, the report is modular. However, it is recommended to include Vehicle Details at a minimum

Vehicle Details

Retrieve your CarAnalysis report
ID of the CarAnalysis report
The region to perform this request in
GET /v2/reports/car-analysis/{id} HTTP/1.1
Host: api.autograb.com.au

Accept: */*

}Obtaining Generated Reports
Due to the Car Analysis report reaching out to external endpoints and co-lating data the report is not generated immediately. It is recommended that the ID for the report be stored for future use or that the PDF be obtained again later.
To obtain the requested report, pass the ID from the POST to the get endpoint.
It is highly recommended that you delay the Get by at least 20 seconds before attempting the request to allow sufficient time for the report to be generated.
