Internet Data Exchange
SPECIAL NOTICE TO IDX and VOW VENDORS:
https://www.silvercityrealtors.org/post/special-notice-to-idx-and-vow-vendors
What is IDX?
IDX = Internet Data eXchange Program – Created to provide a system where brokers can give each other wholesale permission to display their listings on each other's websites, back office systems, and national portals, within certain guidelines.
SCRMLS Listing data is copyrighted and therefore requires a data licensing agreement between the vendor, the broker and the MLS. The applicable use determines which IDX Agreement is required. There are four types of permitted use: IDX, VOW, Back Office data and Broker’s own data.
Here's what IDX can do for you
-
Strengthen the tie with customers
-
Obtain & maintain 1st contact – Being the local housing destination for consumers
-
Provide services desired by today’s Internet savvy buyers and sellers
-
24/7 availability and quick access to updated listing information
-
Easy interfaces for consumers, less non-listing “clutter”
-
Visitors have the ability to search active MLS listings on your website
How do I get IDX?
The IDX process and agreement are started at CoreLogic Trestle - trestlesupport@corelogic.com.
Please review the different IDX options available to SCRMLS members, web developers and vendors:
Framing Option: Paragon's framing solution is a link to pages that can be formatted to appear like the search screen in Paragon, as if they are part of your existing website.
RETS or WebAPIOption: The RETS feed is the IDX feed used most frequently with web developers using SWMLS data. This data feed allows web developers to query or pull from the RETS database the specific property data applicable for the website.
WebAPI conversion begins June 2023 - learn more here!
VOW: Virtual Office Website - information here.
BO: Can be either back office feeds or broker-own feeds.
SOLD: New Mexico is a non-disclosure state. We cannot prohibit sold information in our IDX feed. However, we do prohibit the sales price from going out in our IDX data feeds.
