Ask for coverage of places ("Cook County, IL"; a county keys to its cell, anything else comes back in gaps) for signals by name (signals, always sent: [] when asking by family), or families picked outright (FORECLOSURE, PREFORECLOSURE, PROBATE, PREPROBATE, TAX_DELINQUENCY, CODE_VIOLATION). For those six, read listMyCoverageRequests first: one already asked is not asked again. Any other signal (liens, evictions) is recorded and reaches sales, but no read returns it: ask it once and give no date. Any member.

Variables

The example sends only what the schema requires. Some operations also need one of several optional variables (one filter or another, say); the description above says which.

locations[String!]!required
signals[String!]!required
families[String!]

Response

What comes back under data: a list shows as one entry, and a value as its type.

Errors

Idempotency

Send an Idempotency-Key of 1 to 255 characters. A finished request retried with the same key replays its stored response, marked Idempotency-Replayed: true; one still in flight returns 409 idempotency_conflict. Keys expire after 24 hours. Write without fear →
