Enhance Record Plus API

Enhance Record Plus takes the details you hold about a person and returns an enhanced record from the Global Data Universe: the matched identity, the supplied address cleaned and scored, additional addresses, phones and emails, and, in this version, court records and social records for review.

  • The matched person with match type, gender, judgement count, possible ABN associations and deceased status, plus every address, phone and email on record
  • Court records and social records included for review, each with a documented warning on how they may be used

What the check gives you

Turning a partial customer record into a complete one

Customer records arrive incomplete: a name and a phone, or a name and an old address. Enhance Record Plus matches what you hold against the Global Data Universe and returns the rest of the record, with the supplied address cleaned and scored. The Plus version also attaches public court records matched on name and state, and social records matched on the phones and emails, for an analyst to review.

The matched person

The match type, ranging from a full name and date of birth match down to a match on a phone number, an email address or the address alone, with the person's names, date of birth, gender, a count of judgements, possible ABN associations and deceased status where recorded.

The address, cleaned and placed

The supplied address is parsed and returned with its match result, address ID, and where available the last sale and rental dates and three socio-economic indices for the area. Additional addresses on record follow.

The phones and emails on record

Additional phone numbers and email addresses for the record, with an opt-in option that limits results to contacts opted in to marketing or held in public records.

Court and social records, for review only

Court records are matched on name and state in public court records, and social records on the phones and emails in social media. The documentation states both must not be taken to represent the person directly, and social records must not be used for marketing.

What it costs

A monthly subscription, drawn down as you run checks

Your subscription is credited to your account each month and each check consumes credits from it. If you go past the included amount, further checks are charged at a per-check rate. The rate depends on the volume you commit to, so the sales team is the fastest way to find where your business lands.

  • Pay as you go available
  • No lock-in contract
How billing works
Subscribe monthly, spend it as credits
  • The monthly subscription arrives as credits on your account.
  • Each check draws down credits as it runs.
  • Checks beyond the included credits are billed per check.
  • Higher monthly volume moves you to a lower rate.

Others in Person

Global Data Check confirms details without returning any. Court Check and Social Check run the two added searches on their own. Person History returns the dated address and contact trail.

Questions

Questions we get asked about Enhance Record Plus

Do we need a developer to implement this?
Yes. Enhance Record Plus is a REST endpoint that takes a JSON request and returns a JSON record, so a developer connects it to your CRM or data-quality process. A sandbox with a deterministic test dataset is provided at no usage cost, so the integration can be built and tested before production keys are issued.
What does our system need to send?
At least one of: a first name and last name with a date of birth or an address; a phone number in 0NSN format; or an email address. A middle name and the address parts, street, suburb, state and postcode, improve the match. An opt-in flag limits results to contacts opted in to marketing or in public records.
What comes back?
The supplied address parsed and scored, the matched person with match type, additional addresses, additional phones and emails, court records and social records.
Can we rely on the court and social records?
Not on their own. The documentation states that court records are included on the name and state appearing in public court records, and social records on the emails or phone numbers appearing in social media, and that neither must be taken to directly represent the person. Social records are not checked for opt-in and must not be used for marketing. Organisations must make their own enquiries.
Where does the data come from?
The Global Data Universe, an in-house dataset of person and contact records aggregated from many sources. The reference documentation does not publish a refresh cycle. Court records come from public court records and social records from social media, as documented on the endpoint.
What are our obligations when using this endpoint?
This endpoint returns personally identifiable information. Access to endpoints that return PII requires an appropriate privacy policy and PII handling processes, and use is subject to the Global Data privacy policy and terms of service. On Global Data's side, PII sent in a request is not retained, data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and retention follows the Australian Privacy Act and the Australian Privacy Principles.
Getting started

The first step to access is a conversation

Endpoints that return personal information are opened only to accounts with a privacy policy and PII handling processes in place, and production API keys are issued once the account has been commercially approved.
