Data Plan Requests

Step 1:

Visit Spark and click “Signup” in the upper right hand corner.

Note: Check out Pricing, Documentation, and the MLS Coverage section on the Spark website.

Step 2:

Complete the Developer Registration form and click “Sign Up” at the bottom of the page.

Step 3:

Once your registration has been approved, you must sign up for a data plan to access live data. Start by logging into your new developer account.

Step 4:

Under the Datamart menu on the left, click “View Developer Datamart”. Click on the “Datamart” link near the top left. You will have to enter a payment method if you have not done so already. The payment screen drops you off in the app store when you’re finished entering your details, so once it does, go back to the Datamart at https://sparkplatform.com/appstore/datamart.

Step 5:

Find the MLS and data plan (IDX, VOW, etc.) you’d like to subscribe to and click “Plans and Pricing” to view the licensing costs and Terms and Conditions.

Step 6:

Click the “I accept the Terms and Conditions” checkbox.

Step 7:

Select the application(s) that will use the data.

Step 8:

Indicate whether you are building a product for a specific broker or agent or, if the option is available, multiple brokers or agents. Note: If building for a specific broker or agent, a login name is required.

Step 9:

Click “Purchase With Approval.”

Clicking “Purchase With Approval” initiates the approval process. Depending on required approvals, the agent, office, association, and MLS may need to approve the subscription. After all approvals have been completed, you will receive an email from Spark with your data access instructions, you will see your subscriptions on your Spark dashboard, and your payment will be processed.

If an appropriate data plan is unavailable in the Spark Datamart, please contact the MLS directly to determine if they provide API access.

Feel free to view the steps above in Spark's documentation.
