Property APIGuides

Account resources

Discover products, MLS datasets, regions, and delivery channels authorized for the current API key

Use the account resource endpoint at application startup, during onboarding, and after an entitlement change. It is the customer-specific answer to “what can this credential use?”—not a global product catalog.

Request

curl --request GET \
  --url "https://api.example.invalid/v1/account/resources" \
  --header "x-api-key: $REALTY_API_KEY"

The response is derived from the same verified signed entitlement used to filter listing, OData, search, media, and file-delivery requests.

Inventory is not activation

A dataset profile may report resources present in the licensed dataset while the public OData service activates a smaller governed set. Always read /reso/odata and $metadata before constructing resource requests.

Dataset identity

Treat dataset_id as the durable API identity. It remains stable when transport or ingestion arrangements change. originating_system_name is useful for RESO queries and attribution, but it is not a durable database or cache key.

FieldMeaning
dataset_idOpaque, stable identifier for one licensed dataset
originating_system_nameMLS-provided RESO OriginatingSystemName used in records and queries
display_nameReviewed customer-facing name for presentation and attribution
resourcesDataset inventory with the stable key and collection URL for each resource—not a promise that every entity is activated
entitlement_versionExact signed authorization version used to construct the response

Bootstrap sequence

Load account resources

Cache the response briefly and index datasets by dataset_id.

Load MLS profiles

Store disclaimer, logo, rules URL, and required refresh cadence beside the dataset—not beside an individual listing.

Discover activated OData entities

Read /reso/odata, then $metadata. Generate queries only for entity sets present in both documents.

Start search or replication

Use the JSON search API for application discovery and RESO OData for standards-oriented synchronization.

Refresh behavior

Refresh this document when an API request returns 403, when an entitlement change notification is received, or on a conservative periodic schedule. Do not hard-code the list of MLSs. Dataset membership, enabled resources, and compliance requirements can change independently of an application release.
