Overview

The data fields listed in each section below (collectively the “Internet Visibility” fields) define listing-level permissions for how data may or may not be exposed on websites, including, but not limited to IDX websites, VOW websites, and Syndication websites. These fields also relate to “Limited Marketing Listings” (For reference purposes, IDX, VOW, Syndication, and Limited Marketing Listings are defined within this documentation below).

The Internet Visibility fields have a Boolean value indicator (“True” or “False”) specifying whether a given type of online display or functionality is permitted. PLEASE NOTE that all parties who access our API are REQUIRED to adhere to these display rules and flags as they are a mechanism to enforce seller choices regarding listing display, address display, automated valuations, and third-party commenting features.

InternetEntireListingDisplayYN

This field indicates whether the seller allows the listing to be displayed on the internet. If InternetEntireListingDisplayYN = True, the listing may be displayed. However, if InternetEntireListingDisplayYN = False, the listing CANNOT be displayed on IDX, VOW, or any Syndication websites.

Please note that UtahRealEstate.com had a legacy, custom field called SearchableYN. The Boolean value you will find for the SearchableYN field will be the same value as the InternetEntireListingDisplayYN field.

InternetAddressDisplayYN

This field indicates whether the seller is allowing the property’s street address to be displayed on the internet. If InternetAddressDisplayYN = True, the property address may be displayed. However, if InternetAddressDisplayYN = False, the property address CANNOT be displayed on IDX, VOW, or any Syndication websites.

InternetAutomatedValuationDisplayYN

This field indicates whether the seller allows an automated valuation model or AVM, which is an automated estimate of the market value of the listed property (including hyperlinks to such estimates), to be displayed in conjuction with their listing. If InternetAutomatedValuationDisplayYN = True, an AVM can be displayed in conjunction to the listing. However, if InternetAutomatedValuationDisplayYN = False, then an AVM CANNOT be displayed in conjunction with the listing on IDX, VOW, or Syndication websites.

InternetConsumerCommentYN

This field indicates whether the seller allows third parties to write comments or reviews about their listing on websites, which includes any hyperlinks to such reviews or comments. If InternetConsumerCommentYN = True, then reviews or comments can be displayed in conjunction with the listing. If InternetConsumerCommentYN = False, then reviews or comments CANNOT be displayed in conjunction with the listing on IDX, VOW, or Syndication websites.

DelayedMarketingYN

This field is used to indicate that the seller has directed their broker to classify their listing as a “Delayed Marketing Listing,” as defined further in this documentation and as referred to by UtahRealEstate.com as a “Limited Marketing Listing.” If DelayedMarketingYN = False, and there are no other Internet Visibility limitations enabled for the listing in question, the listing may be displayed. If DelayedMarketingYN = True, then the listing CANNOT be displayed on IDX or Syndication websites (but can still be displayed on VOW websites). UtahRealEstate.com does not currently have a field for DelayedMarketingDate.

Best Practices

When consuming listing data, it is important to respect the Internet Visibility fields to ensure seller instructions are respected, and to ensure you are in compliance with your licensing agreement.

The recommended approach is to replicate the full dataset first, and then apply filtering or adjustments based on the Internet Visibility fields within your own system. This ensures you have a complete and accurate copy of the data, while still honoring display restrictions before presenting listings to end users.

While it is possible to use the OData $filter query option to exclude certain listings at the time of replication, doing so may introduce additional overhead and complexity. Filtering after replication is generally more efficient and reduces the risk of missing important updates.

That being said, if you wanted to exclude certain restricted listings, you could do so like this:

https://resoapi.utahrealestate.com/reso/odata/Property?$filter=InternetEntireListingDisplayYN eq true and DelayedMarketingYN eq false

GET /reso/odata/Property?$filter=InternetEntireListingDisplayYN%20eq%20true%20and%20DelayedMarketingYN%20eq%20false HTTP/1.1
Host: https://resoapi.utahrealestate.com
Authorization: YourBearerToken

{
    "@odata.context": "$metadata#Property(ListingKeyNumeric,...)/$entity",
    "@odata.id": "Property(123456789)",
    "ListingKeyNumeric": 123456789,
    "DelayedMarketingYN": false,
    "InternetAddressDisplayYN": true,
    "InternetEntireListingDisplayYN": true,
    "InternetAutomatedValuationDisplayYN": true,
    "InternetConsumerCommentYN": true
}

The example above would return only listings that have the InternetEntireListingDisplayYN field set to “True” and the DelayedMarketingYN set to “False.” In that example, you would only receive listings that are allowed to be displayed. For more information on Odata query options, see Query Options

Definition of Terms.

• Internet Data Exchange (“IDX”). IDX refers to real estate broker and agent business websites that publicly display other brokerages’ For Sale and Under Contract listings. Listings on these websites can be displayed to anyone accessing the websites, with no requirements for a formal broker- consumer relationship or login process.
  
  
• Virtual Office Websites (“VOW”). VOW refers to real estate broker business websites through which the broker is providing brokerage services to their clients. VOWs are governed by state, National Association of Realtors (“NAR”), and MLS rules, which require among other things, that the broker establishes a lawful broker-consumer relationship, and that the VOW website requires a valid email address and secure login and password in order for the consumer to view listing information.
  
  
• Syndication Websites. Syndication websites refer to real estate listing display websites run by companies that are not authorized to operate VOWs and IDX websites. These websites can display For Sale and Under Contract listings of brokerages who have elected to opt-in to have their listings displayed on those websites. The decision to send listings to a Syndication website is determined by the broker. However, within the MLS system, brokers can also grant their agents permission to make this decision on a listing by-listing basis.
  
  
• Limited Marketing Listing. A Limited Marketing Listing is accessible to other real estate professionals (and their respective clients) through the MLS; however, at the direction of the Seller, the Limited Marketing Listing has been delayed or limited from being publicly marketed via IDX and Syndication. A listing can remain designated as a Limited Marketing Listing for any period of time directed by the Seller. While designated as a Limited Marketing Listing, the listing brokerage and sales agent can market the property in any other manner consistent with the Seller’s choice. The National Association of REALTORS (“NAR”) refers to Limited Marketing Listings as “Delayed Marketing” listings as part of NAR’s mandatory "Multiple Listing Options for Sellers" policy.
