Creating an Inquiry String

An HTTP formatted Inquiry String consists of the HTTP address of the Easy Access HTTP Server, followed by the port number you have assigned in the Easy Access HTTP Server screen. This is followed by the optional username and required password fields, and then by all of the fieldname=value items that you want to include with your inquiry.

You can have Easy Access create this string for you.

1. Click New Inquiry to open an empty Inquiry Entry Form.
2. Fill out all of the fields you want to send (select any products, add ons and risk models) and saving the Inquiry.
3. Click on Tools > Debug > COM/HTTP Inquiry and the popup box will contain the complete Inquiry String.

The following string will request a standard Credit Profile from Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion.

http://192.168.1.101:9088/?Department=Default&user=ADMIN&password=ADMIN
&Reports[1]=1&Reports[2]=1&Reports[41]=1&Reports[55]=1&Reports[81]=1
&LastName=FFESCUE&FirstName=JEAN&SSN=484-42-0555
&Addr1FullStreet=893 LONGVIEW WY&Addr1City=CHARLOTTE
&Addr1State=NC&Addr1Zip=28215&EQOther=F

Retrieving a Stored Report

If you need to view a report already stored within Easy Access, you do not need to request it again from your credit bureau. The GetStoredReport command used in conjunction with a field name pair will return the report stored in the Easy Access database.

The following string will return the report associated with this social security number. Since the SSN may exist in your database more than once, if you have pulled a report on this person more than once, this command will only return the first report found.

http://ServerIPAddress:PortNumber/?User=ADMIN&Password=ADMIN
&SSN=123-456-789&Bureau=1&cmd=GetStoredReport

Use a custom field or the User Defined Field filled with a unique value to get a specific report.
