To make a vehicle (VIN) visible on the Console, it must be pushed through our Inventory API with all required details and marked as ACTIVE.

✅ Required Details for VIN to Go Live

  • Valid 17-character VIN

  • Year, Make, Model

  • Price (greater than 0)

  • Status set to ACTIVE

  • Media processed (if applicable)


? How the Process Works

  1. VIN is submitted via API.

  2. System validates required fields.

  3. Media is processed.

  4. If everything is valid and status = ACTIVE, VIN becomes LIVE on the Console.

  • Media still processing

  • Mapping mismatch (make/model)
