IAA / IAAI integration

Use IAAI auction data through the same normalized API as Copart

Search IAA / IAAI inventory, retrieve vehicles, pricing, auction state, condition, sale-document information, location and supported media without building a separate client stack.

Format
JSON
Identity

VIN, lot/stock number, make, model, year, series and normalized title.

Auction state

Open/live/ended state, auction date, current bid and supported timing fields.

Condition

Run condition, key availability, damage, odometer, engine and drivetrain.

Media

Photos, image counts and supported video or 360-view data when available.

Request example

Search IAA / IAAI inventory

export APIBARA_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

curl --request GET \
  --url "https://apibara.tech/api/v1/vehicle-auction/vehicles?platform=iaai&make=NISSAN&lot_sub_status=Open&per_page=20" \
  --header "Accept: application/json" \
  --header "X-API-Key: ${APIBARA_API_KEY}"

The API filter value is iaai. This page uses both “IAA” and “IAAI” because both terms are commonly used by developers searching for integration data.

Independent service

Apibara is an independent vehicle-auction data service. It is not IAA, is not owned by IAA and is not presented as an official IAA / IAAI API.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the API use platform=iaai?

The current API schema uses iaai as the source-filter value, while both IAA and IAAI are commonly used search terms.

Can I retrieve IAAI vehicles by VIN or lot number?

Yes. Supported VINs, lot numbers and vehicle identifiers can be used for search or direct lookup.

Does IAAI data include photos or video?

Supported records can expose images, image counts and additional media such as video or 360-view information when available.

Can I combine IAAI and Copart in one application?

Yes. Both sources use the same normalized API, pagination and core vehicle response model.
