FMCSA Registrations

🚧
FMCSA Registrations Enablement
As a supplementary data point for business address verification, we have added the ability to search and match against the FMCSA (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration). This feature is enabled by default; therefore, the FMCSA will appear in the "source" field for cases where the business address can be found through their database (reference the sample JSON response below for the full mapping). Note this is an optional feature that can be turned off by reaching out to your Account Manager or to [email protected]
